RE: Bypass I10 thru Houston
WJ, You can take hwy 6 from I-10 in Addicks and get to Galveston as you stated. Be warned, you will deal with a jillion traffic lights until you get past Alvin. Also watch your speed. The BW 8 around the southern perimeter of town is good highway but several $1.50 tolls to pay. The ride from Galveston to Winnie is pretty wide open and almost completely uninhabited. I make the run to Lake Charles a couple of times a year andI find that the worst part on I-10 is from Beaumont to the Sabine river. Lots of construction, big trucks,and people hauling a$$. Take your time and do it in daylight. BTW Goes Harley is in Angleton kinda close to that hwy 6route. Nice people, small town shop.

I agree with you...the stretch between Beaumont thru Vidor to Orange is really bad...
Do you have a route to skip that piece of I10?
