Texas in May...
.. ya, I am thinking about that. The hill country, Big Bend, and whatever strokes my goat. Head down thru Idaho, Utah, Arizona.... come back through New Mexico, Colorado, Wyoming and Montana. Maybe spend a few days in San Antonio or Austin.
In Big Bend and the hill country...... camping or motels that time of year?

I think Fredericksburg would fit those needs well. Stops and rides like to Lukenbach, to great BBQ, 3 sisters, Bandera, etc. are within reach. Much has been written about this area. Lots of roads....FMs and state routes. Its all good. That ride on 90 out of Big Bend to the Hill Country is pretty out to Langtry and across the Pecos River. I know some may think its too desolate, etc. but that makes it pretty cool.

I stay at the Kerrville-Schreiner Park when riding the hill country. Stay on the side away from the river and see a lot of wildlife. There is more noise on the river side of the park. Usually tent camp, but if it is too hot, I get a cabin. May is a good time to go.
