I cannot tell you both how relaxing this video was today for me to just sit back and enjoy the scenery and the joy of the ride of that bike was just amazing. Just love your videos so much. Stay blessed and safe out there.
I had to stop riding my Victory Vision about 5 years ago because of medical issues. Watching this video made me miss riding so much. I was leaning into every curve with you on the ride. Thank you.
We've been stationary for 7 months now in S Texas. Your video makes me hanker to get back on the road! On the other hand I am trying to embrace this phase in our RV life and not waste a moment waiting for the next .❤
Could always check in with the local chapter. 23-3. 3 Sisters is a loop, but any road between Bandera and Kerville is beautiful...he'll just stay on 16 and you will see amazing beauty. You don't have to do the whole loop. Bent Rim Grill is a great place for a beer and a burger. Couple of Motorcycle Museums out there too.
You did great by picking Firefly and the Fredericksburg area. We spend a lot of time there and were at Firefly for Memorial Day. Luckenbach is great as well as hiking Enchanted Rock. Another part of the hill country worth seeing is the Bandera, Medina, Utopia area. The scenery is amazing and lots to enjoy. Glad y'all enjoyed a sweet part of Texas. Hope y'all have safe travels
Hope you ate at Vaudeville and Hill and Vine. We moved out just past Kerrville from Houston about 5 years ago I will die out here. Hill Country is HEAVEN on earth. Traded the Joneses for wildlife which are the best neighbors by far!
Hi, a german here. Ratskeller in Germany is normally a restaurant / tavern beneath the Rathaus (townhall). They are an old tradition in Germany and way back in time when this started these taverns were only open for the Ratsherren (Rulers of the city). Cheers Volker
We love KOAs. Recently stayed at our 1st KOA Resort. It was incredible the things they had at Mt Rushmore/Palmer. This was more of a destination stay itself. Lots of families. We like to use our stays as a base camp and explore the surrounding areas. We belong to the rewards program and stay enough to pay for the yrly charge.
Have family in Kerrville, great place to stay - several nice RV parks and Medina Highway 16 is a great motorcycle road , and on that road - Apple Store!! - must stop !! Great burgers and their homemade apple pie ! Yummy!
My wife and I were stationed in Kaiserslautern, Germany for 6yrs. We visited Luchenbach. It was a quaint little village. Most German towns were and are very friendly people. If you were American military they would buy you drinks. You made friends, I still stay in contact with some after 30 yrs of leaving Germany. Some have come here and stayed with us for vacation. We showed them around. We live in Louisville, KY. We take them to Mammoth Cave and the Smokies. We have a blast. I want to visit Fredericksburg, TX and Leavenworth, WA. I am 3/4 German, 1/4 Scottish
PS I have a good friend who lived in Texas and took his motorcycle for hill country/blue bonnet rides and I am asking him the best ones. He mentioned the Butler’s Motorcycle maps. They have one especially for the Texas Hill country and mention some hidden gems.
The road surface that you said looked like gravel stuck in tar is called chip and seal. The road oil seals cracks and preserves the asphalt on existing roads, or can be a stand alone surface that is much cheaper than asphalt. The gravel basically keeps you out of the oil
The road surface you were driving on while on the Willow City Loop is known as a "macadam" surface. It's usually comprised of multiple layers of similar size rock/gravel/pebbles held in place by an oil-based tar, although in some instances an organic rubber-based tar is used. It's kinda a pre-courser to modern day asphalt and isn't very widely used in the US these days, as it's not quit as structurally stable as asphalt or concrete, as it's especially susceptible to deformation due to use during periods of high heat. However, my understanding is that it is less expensive than asphalt, which makes it a good choice for surfacing a road that, while not highly used, has enough traffic volume on it to make leaving the surface graded dirt more expensive to maintain than installing a macadam surface would be. Macadam road surfaces are widely used elsewhere in the world, especially in developing countries. If you have any interest in learning more about macadam, it has an interesting history and goes back, I think, to the Roman Empire. I'm not certain what was originally used as the binding agent to hold the rock substrate together, but do know that macadam was widely used as airport runway finish surface in the times prior to the advent of jets. And the ONLY reason I know this much about macadam is because a lot of world-wide travelers in the pre-jet age, who wrote books about their travels, used the phrase "lifted from the macadam" or "touched down on the macadam" when describing their air travels. I read a lot of those books as a young teen in the 60's and 70's, had no idea what macadam was, so went to my local library (obviously pre-internet days) to find out. Macadam surfaces don't hold up well in conditions of high speed traffic, which is why you don't see it used much anymore.
Enjoyed your video! I have spent several trips in that area and enjoyed reliving it. We spent about 5 days in Fredericksberg, Greune, New Braunfels, and Kerrville area. Did a little 5 stand sporting clays shooting in Kerrville, the Olympic Training Facility. It was really nice and lot of fun. We used to ride our bicycles in the Tour de Gruene bike ride several years during the Wurstfest in October. The bike ride was 100K. The first part left Gruene and went along the Guadeloupe River for about 17 miles. Must have crossed the river 4 separate times. Beautiful ride, I know you'd enjoy it on your motorcycle. We also spent time around Canyon Lake, which is fed by the Guadeloupe River. Went tubing on a section of it during one summer, extremely hot weather and cold river. Tubed by a music festival where Zac Brown Band was performing. Good times. Thanks again for your video, well done.
You drove right by it coming into town. If you didn't visit the Nimitz Museum, you haven't seen Fredericksburg. The old hotel belonged to Adm. Chester Nimitz' parents and the interior shows his life story and everything WWII in the Pacific theater.
The type of pavement you were riding on was chip seal. It's an alternative to asphalt pavement, and we drove on it last summer while driving the famous 'Road to McCarthy' in Alaska.
Allstate Brewery is a MUST! The WW 2 Museum is fantastic and could take 2 days to go through. Fredericksburg is one of our favorite places! Becker Vineyards is another great place!
Hello from the heart of the Twisted Sisters route, Leakey (La-Key). I grew up here and now it’s our home base. You owe it to yourselves to make a return trip a little later in the spring to enjoy the wildflowers! Safe travels!
Hi Chad and Tara, We live just outside of Houston and we have a Harley. We have ridden some of the roads in the Hill Country and it is absolutely beautiful. I am glad you got to see all the Bluebonnets. We have been to Luckenbach too. We were there on the weekend and was very crowded. Glad you are enjoying our beautiful Texas. Stay safe and enjoy!
I am so glad to see content creators enjoying their RVs and sharing their adventures. So many of the other channels have gotten away from RVing and have turned into a totally negative experience. The length and quality of their videos is disappointing. Some of them seem to just talk about anything to get paid. I have personally unsubscribed from many of them recently. Thank you for staying the course and sharing the good side of traveling in a RV with all of us.
Some civil contractors use what some call a rock box or dump box. As the excavator digs up unwanted or non-soil material, it puts it in the box and drag the box behind them as they move along.
Bandera is good area. Garner State park. Kerville. Highway 16 from Kerville to Medina is a beautifully ride on the bike Anywhere in hill country is good
The parking lot you parked in is by a restaurant called the hitching post. They make the best chicken fried steak in the area. Hope y'all enjoyed our town.
Thanks for the ride on the motorcycle although I would like to see one without music and just listening to your pipes as you roar down the road love the dog
Mississippi used to resurface roads like that and it was a windshield buster till all lose gravel either stuck or got off the road. That was a relaxing ride and beautiful scenery. Yall find some amazing places. I look forward to next weeks video.
Love you include the date of filming! Looked like an amazing bike ride! I always forget that Lukenbach Texas had a German heritage . Duh 😂. Safe travels! - Mike and Shelley
Would love to see you hit 300 K subscribers by the end of the year. You both deserve it !!!!!! What you both do is so much work, I am sure nobody knows how much. When I retired 5 yrs ago I started couponing to give back to the community. Used to spend pennies to donate to the children's shelter. About 5, 27 gal. tote bins full ever 6 months. Personal care items to cereal. Now that is cut to about 20 %. due to coupon fraud. Breaks my heart. Now I shop for family and friends and donate as much as I can. Just bought 15 boxes of cereal today for the kids for free. I used to spend 60 hours a week on couponing. Cutting inserts, planning deals, shopping at Kroger, Walmart and CVS each week, travel, scanning rebate apps, research, finding and printing coupons from apps. I would spend 60 hours a week. Most people would think I would spend couple hours and shop. Behind the camera you have to add 80 %. That is what I know you both have to do also. That is why I know 30 minutes of video is probably 80 hours of work for both of you. Not much time for fun. This is your job. Do people even think about the MASSIVE amount of travel time you have, set up, break down. THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU DO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
FM 1323 goes from HWY 16 all the way to HWY 281. The wild flowers on 1323 from Willow City to 281 were magnificent this year! We live in San Antonio and when we drive the Willow City Loop, we always come from the 281 because of the flowers. Also, the flowers this year peaked earlier than normal. When we get to end of the Willow City Loop, we turn right on 16 and go to Llano to eat BBQ at Cooper’s Pit BBQ. Then we will head east on HWY 71 to Marble Falls for pie and Blue Bonnet Cafe… As far as best of the Hill country, that’s too subjective because it’s all beautiful. You were in a good spot, right in the middle so you could go both north and south easily to enjoy it all…
We love Hill country, Fredericksburg, and discoveries. Hope you get to the National Museum of The Pacific. Admiral Nimitz!! Did you eat German food? Schnitzel
Chad and Tara, you might look at this as a diss. It is not at all, it is a you guys rock. As far as videos, you guys rock. The only other cannel that beats you is Finding Your Someday. That is only because he was a PRO photographer at one time. His stills and remote work ariel work. What you and Tara do is nothing short of amazing !!!!!!!! Had to match a PRO photographer. But you both are at the top of the food chain !!!!!! Wonderful. Tara, I do not know how you got so good at editing and music induction. But , you are off the hook !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great Video Awesome towns & beautiful scenery ❤ 🐶I know you have told us "the breed" Daisy🌼 is but I can't remember 🤔 She's so adorable 🥰‼️ Perfect dog for seniors in retirement 😊 Safe Travels & btw the food looks amazing 😋😋😋‼️
Great video! We have been on a day trip but never taken our RV to Fredericksburg but have been to Kerrville, Concan, Canyon, and New Braunfels to name a few. Hill country is a magical area ❤ I can guess the issue you had with Firefly. They won't let you leave pets in the RV when you sightsee. That id t right when they charge you for pets too. I'll stick with the COE campgrounds and state parks I guess.
You need to hit Riley’s Tavern in New Braunfels. They have liquor license #1. And Naegelin’s Bakery in New Braunfels. They are the oldest bakery in Texas.
I would suggest Bandera-"cowboy capital of the world" lol I would highly recommend the Mayan Dude Ranch there! A family owned dude ranch with old CCC buildings
You were in the home town of the man(Adam Curry) that invented Podcasting! Curry & The Keeper is an excellent podcast if you’re looking for a positive uplifting listen!
I live in Denver and have a place in Rockport TX. Go through Fredericksburg both coming and going. The Twisted Sisters bakery there is one of the best in all of Texas. All gluten free.
I love you guys, and love all your videos. But as a semi-musician, biker, RV'r, I wish to god you would either play real music, or just the sounds of the winds and your Victory..than that canned Rv'r YTber channel god awful muzac! It is like kudzu, it's everywhere! I have to mute the audio watching the ride. Would you sit by the fire or ride in your truck and listen to that ooooohhhh oooooh! crap?? It sounds all the same.... so sorry for my rant. Oh, and you are lucky you have a cute dog you can leave alone in the rv. I can't leave mine alone and being single it really restricts my activities. But still trying to get out there!
Cool channel accept for the folksy or whatever kind of music is. Makes me want to mute! Also you guys should try using your phone and your Bluetooth in your truck when backing into sights and such instead of using walkie-talkies. Your wife can call you you can talk and never have to pick up a walkie-talkie. If you have no service walkie-talkies are okay. Use the Bluetooth in your truck much easier.
We have son and daughter in law in Kerrville so we visit there quite a bit. It is a huge destination for motorcyclists to stay and ride all the paths. The Visitor Center has maps with all the paths. Beautiful country. Kerrville is about 20 minutes from Fredericksburg. Our go to town every time we visit
Love your TH-cam Channel! See your in the Fredericksburg area! we used to stay (in our motor home) at the SunSet Point RV campsite. (not part of the military camping as some maps say). Each site has a view of the lake and many trees. Keep up the good work!
Nice area to ride. Hill Country is a misnomer. I enjoyed riding by the Private Game Preserves. Twisted Sisters, got the tin and it was an okay lunch stop. Tractor Supply is one of the few places that always has decent parking.
We love Fredericksburg. We try to camp there twice a year. Octoberfest is fun! We’ve taken the bike and explored the enchanted rock and blue bonnets in April.
We have been following you before we purchased our Class G Momentum. We have just started our RV adventures and having a great time. I noticed you have installed some runners on your steps. Could you tell me what product you used and how you installed them?
Maybe you visit in the next video, but enchanted rock s.p. Is definitely worth a stop if you’re ever back in the area. Really unique geology. I avoid the main dome as it’s usually a line of people going up or down.
Beautiful country with hills being in Texas. Years ago I had to drop off a pull trailer in Austin , Texas. I'm telling you even in the town area just took my breath away. If you get the chance you might want to look into checking out this area. Again this was so many years ago but I sure the huge hills are still there.
I think that road construction may be called "chip and seal" at least that what they called it in Arkansas where my parents used to live. They do a similar thing around here in Michigan but I don't know what they call it. I think it's just a cheap but reasonably effective way to resurface roads. It can be a little treacherous just after they do it as there's a fair amount of loose gravel on the road. Looks like a cool ride though. Keep the good stuff coming guys.
Great video! As always. We are finally beginning to get to Texas starting next winter and hill country is definitely of interest. No packages at the campground would stink. Cool bike ride! How far was that? Would e-bikes do ok? Love love that you two are traveling and creating great videos still after “all these years”. 👍🏻
I loved Texas Hill country. I went to a dude ranch in Bandara. I had a great time, went to the smallest bar with a sawdust floor and listened to a live band. Beautiful landscape. Great video ❤❤
You have to be careful on those low water crossings if there is water flowing over it. Those things build up algae and become very slick. Very easy to drop your bike even if you ar going slow with the training wheels down.
I really appreciate you pausing the video at signs so we can read them. No one else does that. Hopefully others will catch on.
I like that too! Nice touch
Ever since I first saw him do it, Love It. The wife just said it again, too. Great episode. Pretty scenery
Very entertaining! Your hard work putting this, and all of your videos is very much appreciated!
Nice ride through the farmland
😂holy crap😂 spot coffee all over my laptop at the European Vacation reference 😂😂
Look at the Marble Falls area. Also, the town of Kerrville is nice, beautiful scenery along the Guadalupe River
Another great bucket list destination!! And ya'll put in some great music this week, love it all! Thanks for sharing.
Howdy from Kerrville :)
The humidity is absolutely insane down here right now!
Amazing place! We love going there.
👋🏼 Hey, JD!
I think you would enjoy Bandera, TX and also Wimberley TX. They're both in the Hill Country.
I cannot tell you both how relaxing this video was today for me to just sit back and enjoy the scenery and the joy of the ride of that bike was just amazing. Just love your videos so much. Stay blessed and safe out there.
The Pacific War museum in Fredericksburg is a multi day visit.
I had to stop riding my Victory Vision about 5 years ago because of medical issues. Watching this video made me miss riding so much. I was leaning into every curve with you on the ride. Thank you.
Welcome to SA during rush hour, and don’t talk about the heat and humidity, WOW! We are building a new home in Valdese NC and can’t wait!!!!!
The hill country and the Fredericksburg area is great to visit. Looked like you had a lot of fun.
Also, watch for deer out there. They are EVERYWHERE, especially at dusk and dawn. They pay no attention to crossing areas.
We've been stationary for 7 months now in S Texas. Your video makes me hanker to get back on the road! On the other hand I am trying to embrace this phase in our RV life and not waste a moment waiting for the next .❤
Could always check in with the local chapter. 23-3. 3 Sisters is a loop, but any road between Bandera and Kerville is beautiful...he'll just stay on 16 and you will see amazing beauty. You don't have to do the whole loop. Bent Rim Grill is a great place for a beer and a burger. Couple of Motorcycle Museums out there too.
You did great by picking Firefly and the Fredericksburg area. We spend a lot of time there and were at Firefly for Memorial Day. Luckenbach is great as well as hiking Enchanted Rock. Another part of the hill country worth seeing is the Bandera, Medina, Utopia area. The scenery is amazing and lots to enjoy. Glad y'all enjoyed a sweet part of Texas. Hope y'all have safe travels
You visited the Hill Country during one of the most spectacular wildflower seasons I have seen in many years.
Hope you ate at Vaudeville and Hill and Vine. We moved out just past Kerrville from Houston about 5 years ago I will die out here. Hill Country is HEAVEN on earth. Traded the Joneses for wildlife which are the best neighbors by far!
Hi, a german here. Ratskeller in Germany is normally a restaurant / tavern beneath the Rathaus (townhall). They are an old tradition in Germany and way back in time when this started these taverns were only open for the Ratsherren (Rulers of the city).
Cheers

We love KOAs. Recently stayed at our 1st KOA Resort. It was incredible the things they had at Mt Rushmore/Palmer. This was more of a destination stay itself. Lots of families. We like to use our stays as a base camp and explore the surrounding areas. We belong to the rewards program and stay enough to pay for the yrly charge.
Have family in Kerrville, great place to stay - several nice RV parks and Medina Highway 16 is a great motorcycle road , and on that road - Apple Store!! - must stop !! Great burgers and their homemade apple pie ! Yummy!
My wife and I were stationed in Kaiserslautern, Germany for 6yrs. We visited Luchenbach. It was a quaint little village. Most German towns were and are very friendly people. If you were American military they would buy you drinks. You made friends, I still stay in contact with some after 30 yrs of leaving Germany. Some have come here and stayed with us for vacation. We showed them around. We live in Louisville, KY. We take them to Mammoth Cave and the Smokies. We have a blast. I want to visit Fredericksburg, TX and Leavenworth, WA. I am 3/4 German, 1/4 Scottish
PS I have a good friend who lived in Texas and took his motorcycle for hill country/blue bonnet rides and I am asking him the best ones. He mentioned the Butler’s Motorcycle maps. They have one especially for the Texas Hill country and mention some hidden gems.
Good to see your vids. I must say that I worry about you folks with all the frame failures. I hope all is well. Thanks for posting!
The road surface that you said looked like gravel stuck in tar is called chip and seal. The road oil seals cracks and preserves the asphalt on existing roads, or can be a stand alone surface that is much cheaper than asphalt. The gravel basically keeps you out of the oil
Really enjoyed the sightseeing and touring; thanks! For the first time, I'm starting to think it would be fun to have a motorcycle. 🙂
Looks like we just missed you. We stayed at Firefly on 3/12-3/14.
Travel further. I enjoy your travels. Be safe there are a lots of dummies driving out there. Lol
You actually made me lol with your comment "Look kids, Big Ben! Parliament!".
The road surface you were driving on while on the Willow City Loop is known as a "macadam" surface. It's usually comprised of multiple layers of similar size rock/gravel/pebbles held in place by an oil-based tar, although in some instances an organic rubber-based tar is used.

The atom bomb, the Japanese captured subs, the Japanese peace garden…. That museum is amazing!
On the list for next time! 😊
Hondo’s makes the best margarita (hand squeezed lime juice). Nothing like the Hill Country!
Texas Hill Country, specifically Boerne, is on my list once I finally buy my travel trailer.
The type of pavement you were riding on was chip seal. It's an alternative to asphalt pavement, and we drove on it last summer while driving the famous 'Road to McCarthy' in Alaska.
I always enjoy watching your adventures. Give that darling Daisy some love from me❤️🐾🥰
Allstate Brewery is a MUST! The WW 2 Museum is fantastic and could take 2 days to go through. Fredericksburg is one of our favorite places! Becker Vineyards is another great place!

Hi Chad and Tara, We live just outside of Houston and we have a Harley. We have ridden some of the roads in the Hill Country and it is absolutely beautiful.

Love gettin out for a ride on Lucille. The music was great too. That is rotten about the backhoe noise.
Ohhh I live here! Hill Country is amazing. A lil hot right now. 😀

We ate at the Ratskeller in Münich last Oktober!
The Schnitzel was Awesome!!
That "pebbles laid on top of tar" is called a Chip and Seal.
Waco has a bus tour drive throughout town to look at houses, but there is a wonderful spot that shows the landscape. It's beautiful!
Here from Kerrville. The Twisted Sisters is a must especially during the fall.
Thanks for the ride on the motorcycle although I would like to see one without music and just listening to your pipes as you roar down the road love the dog
Keep the music. Good stuff.
Mississippi used to resurface roads like that and it was a windshield buster till all lose gravel either stuck or got off the road. That was a relaxing ride and beautiful scenery. Yall find some amazing places. I look forward to next weeks video.
14:26 Must have been one hell-of-a peanutbutter cup!

You guys are making me homesick. I love The Hill Country.

Thank you for your service! 🇺🇸
Dripping Springs is wonderful with all the hiking and natural sites to see!
Great video! Thanks for taking me along! 👍🇺🇸
Welcome tah my part's guys -
Good to see you 2 having some fun on the bike!
Alamo Springs Cafe. Just sayin’.
Best burgers in Texas.
What a beautiful tour. Thank you!

Would love to see you hit 300 K subscribers by the end of the year. You both deserve it !!!!!! What you both do is so much work, I am sure nobody knows how much.
When I retired 5 yrs ago I started couponing to give back to the community. Used to spend pennies to donate to the children's shelter. About 5, 27 gal. tote bins full ever 6 months. Personal care items to cereal. Now that is cut to about 20 %. due to coupon fraud. Breaks my heart. Now I shop for family and friends and donate as much as I can. Just bought 15 boxes of cereal today for the kids for free. I used to spend 60 hours a week on couponing. Cutting inserts, planning deals, shopping at Kroger, Walmart and CVS each week, travel, scanning rebate apps, research, finding and printing coupons from apps. I would spend 60 hours a week.
Most people would think I would spend couple hours and shop. Behind the camera you have to add 80 %. That is what I know you both have to do also.
That is why I know 30 minutes of video is probably 80 hours of work for both of you. Not much time for fun. This is your job.

That id t right when they charge you for pets too.
I'll stick with the COE campgrounds and state parks I guess.
Great Video! Just found you on TH-cam and subscribed. Love all your content and music. The Tucker’s from The Woodlands, Tx.
You need to hit Riley’s Tavern in New Braunfels. They have liquor license #1. And Naegelin’s Bakery in New Braunfels. They are the oldest bakery in Texas.
I would suggest Bandera-"cowboy capital of the world" lol I would highly recommend the Mayan Dude Ranch there! A family owned dude ranch with old CCC buildings
You were in the home town of the man(Adam Curry) that invented Podcasting! Curry & The Keeper is an excellent podcast if you’re looking for a positive uplifting listen!

It is like kudzu, it's everywhere! I have to mute the audio watching the ride. Would you sit by the fire or ride in your truck and listen to that ooooohhhh oooooh! crap?? It sounds all the same.... so sorry for my rant. Oh, and you are lucky you have a cute dog you can leave alone in the rv. I can't leave mine alone and being single it really restricts my activities. But still trying to get out there!
My husband and I just purchased yesterday a 2019 Indian Darkhorse and I was wondering what phone holder you use? (This is my sons YT account lol)
Cool channel accept for the folksy or whatever kind of music is. Makes me want to mute! Also you guys should try using your phone and your Bluetooth in your truck when backing into sights and such instead of using walkie-talkies. Your wife can call you you can talk and never have to pick up a walkie-talkie. If you have no service walkie-talkies are okay. Use the Bluetooth in your truck much easier.
We have son and daughter in law in Kerrville so we visit there quite a bit. It is a huge destination for motorcyclists to stay and ride all the paths. The Visitor Center has maps with all the paths. Beautiful country. Kerrville is about 20 minutes from Fredericksburg. Our go to town every time we visit
Love your TH-cam Channel! See your in the Fredericksburg area! we used to stay (in our motor home) at the SunSet Point RV campsite. (not part of the military camping as some maps say). Each site has a view of the lake and many trees. Keep up the good work!
Nice area to ride. Hill Country is a misnomer. I enjoyed riding by the Private Game Preserves. Twisted Sisters, got the tin and it was an okay lunch stop. Tractor Supply is one of the few places that always has decent parking.
Love Fredericksburg! Have RVd there many times. Love your videos, Daisy is awesome.
We love Fredericksburg. We try to camp there twice a year. Octoberfest is fun! We’ve taken the bike and explored the enchanted rock and blue bonnets in April.
We have been following you before we purchased our Class G Momentum. We have just started our RV adventures and having a great time. I noticed you have installed some runners on your steps. Could you tell me what product you used and how you installed them?
Can an rv park get any uglier, with cement pads n no trees or bushes planted? And i'm sure the charge premium too. Yuk!
But enjoy your vids 😊. 🍻
Maybe you visit in the next video, but enchanted rock s.p. Is definitely worth a stop if you’re ever back in the area. Really unique geology. I avoid the main dome as it’s usually a line of people going up or down.
I have driven through the Texas Hill Country by car & truck, but never by motorcycle. Thanks for posting!! It is such incredibly beautiful country!!
Beautiful country with hills being in Texas. Years ago I had to drop off a pull trailer in Austin , Texas. I'm telling you even in the town area just took my breath away. If you get the chance you might want to look into checking out this area. Again this was so many years ago but I sure the huge hills are still there.
In the hill country, be sure to visit New Braunfels, Gruene, Boerne and Wimberly. Gruene is a great half day trip.
I think that road construction may be called "chip and seal" at least that what they called it in Arkansas where my parents used to live. They do a similar thing around here in Michigan but I don't know what they call it. I think it's just a cheap but reasonably effective way to resurface roads. It can be a little treacherous just after they do it as there's a fair amount of loose gravel on the road. Looks like a cool ride though. Keep the good stuff coming guys.
Yall in my old stomping grounds. Military forced me to leave texas and sent me to California 😢
That truck wash is down the road from my old house
Great video! As always. We are finally beginning to get to Texas starting next winter and hill country is definitely of interest. No packages at the campground would stink. Cool bike ride! How far was that? Would e-bikes do ok? Love love that you two are traveling and creating great videos still after “all these years”. 👍🏻
I loved Texas Hill country. I went to a dude ranch in Bandara. I had a great time, went to the smallest bar with a sawdust floor and listened to a live band. Beautiful landscape. Great video ❤❤
My goldwing actually starts if I push it no more than 3mph and pop the clutch.
Buckhorn Campground is way better place to stay in the Hill Country.
You have to be careful on those low water crossings if there is water flowing over it. Those things build up algae and become very slick. Very easy to drop your bike even if you ar going slow with the training wheels down.
San Antonio traffic can be a pain.
Guys, west of Austin is amazing. Dripping Springs and Wimberly
