Austin up to Denton Texas

Looking for some ideas of good roads to ride from Austin Texas up to Denton and then back. Planning a quick ride there in February.

Going: Lampasas, Camanche (or Hamilton), Stephenville then you pick from there.
Return: Corsicana, Mexia, Kosse, Hearne, Taylor -> Austin.
Have been all over those areas. Plenty of nice roads, less traffic, gas and eats.
Or go straight up the middle for a quick trip.
Serious heavy traffic up the middle.

For an adventure trip, try following old US Hwy 77. It was the main N/S road prior to I-35 being built and kinda parallels the same route. Only time you get on 35 is between Waco and Hillsboro. Lots of old towns and the SuperCollider site.

281 is a nice ride. If you want a little longer ride take 380 from Denton over to 75 then up 121 to Westminster and eat a damn good burger at Big Slick's Bar & Grill.
