This is a great ride, but the way it is mapped, misses what one magazine called the best 15 miles in Texas for motorcycles. Instead of taking Gruene Rd to 306, take River Road. It winds along the Guadalupe River, canyon walls, and dense trees that is curvy and visually beautiful! River Road turns into the Dam access road, which goes around the dam of the lake to 306. Much better route.
