    who would have thunk? hills in Texas? these are some of the most amazing twisties i have ever been on. great for the sports car (us last week, in our new Saturn Sky) and better yet for bikes. signs everywhere saying biker friendly! we stayed in Kerrville and tried the twisted sisters. 335,336,337. nice road conditions on all three of these, 336 has cattle guards and watch for free ranging cattle, 337 scared the living daylights out of me, they are not kidding when they state "steep grades and sharp turns ahead" they fail to mention if you don't make the turn you learn to fly!!! also the lime creek road outside of Ceder Park was amazing!!! we didn't have time to try the roads around Huston, they are supposed to be better yet, saving something for next time we need to get out of the -35 and blowing weather!!!
    hope you all have a happy new year

    yep, we gots lots in TX. makes me proud :D
    out in bandera, kerville and that general direction, caution is important.
    falling bolders, bad drivers(cagers going wide on curves), and cattle can make for a bad day.
