North Texas Sweeper Heaven

I did this ride with my daughter and we liked it pretty well. You just gotta watch out for cattle. There was cattle in fields over much of the rid, but outside one of the little town, sorry I can't remember which one, someone's bull was walking down the road. We stopped at least a quarter mile away and turned around just in case, but he eventually walked off into another field either back home or over to his girlfriend's place and we continued on our way.

We stopped at the Cattleman's Cafe in Blue Ridge for lunch. It was a great place, but we suspected as much because when we arrived there about 20 other bikers already there just finishing breakfast.

Great route. Good roads, fun, and not much traffic. Stop in Westminster for a burger at Big Slicks & Check out the stuff in the Motorcycle Outpost. Jerry is a good guy.

I rode the whole route on 02/01/09. 545 is a very nice road with lots of sweepers, but the rest of the route is pretty blah with few exceptions. If you like a lot of straight lines and nice farm/ranch land scenery, this is a great ride. If you like a little more action, this one might be too tame for you. Still, the area just North of Dallas is a little bland for roads anyway. It is very difficult to find excitement around here...
