Road Quality:
|
|
There
are numerous twisty corners mixed with sweeping fast corners
that make this route great to ride. The quality of road
changes as you ride on FM2670 past Maxwell, becoming smaller,
and with a few small potholes, but doesn't last for long.
Once you get to 2657, things improve and the surface becomes
nice and smooth all the way to Burnet. Expect a good mix
in corner types, with the majority being smooth. There are
also nice transitions between corners that will make you
smile every time.

The
route begins on 195/FM2670, so Killeen and Florence are
close to gas/eat up before the ride. There are a few small
rural towns, but they don't offer very much. The ride
ends in Burnet, and there are plenty of places to shop
or eat. Gas is plentiful also, just mind that the prices
can be somewhat higher than expected.

Written directions:
Start
in Killeen, TX (which is just south of Ft.
Hood). Take Rt 195 south from Killeen. Turn
right at 2670 and follow until it dead ends
at 2657. Turn right and then drive about
2 miles and you will turn left at 963(Oakalla).
Take 963 through Watson and follow all the
way to Burnet. Looking at the map, you will
see numerous country roads that branch off
this main route that are equally as fun.
Enjoy!
