Welcome home. If you plan on riding through the Leakey area you'll find you can actually stop and have a beer at The Motorcycle Stop on 337. Uvalde has grown a lot in just the past 3 years. I have a place off 334 just west of the west Nueces River and plan on going in about a week or so to do some work.

Enjoy your ride and be safe.

Everything should be nice and green since there has been quite a bit of rain recently. Looks like the weather is going to be Ok for the next couple of weeks. Have a great trip and be safe!

By the way, if you happen down I-20 through Midland, give me a holler, I'll buy you a plate of Tex Mex.

Thanks guys, I am really looking forward to getting back for a couple weeks.. And the Tex Mex sounds good, not too much of that up here in Montana.. If I pass through that area I'll definitely holler at ya..
bdgreen, it's been awhile but I know we used to ride from Uvalde up to Camp wood, and over to Leakey then back down to Uvalde. I will have to check out the motorcycle stop.

It's only been there a couple years. It started on the corner of 83 and 337. They moved to a new location a little further out 337 going toward Campwood. That place and the whole area have really become popular for bikers, so don't be surprised if it looks like they're having a rally.

I just spotted this thread and You're probably already headed this way.That's a damn fine part of Texas You're headed to.Drop Me a line if You get over to the Boerne area and We can meet up.Watch out for deer around the area.I hit one coming out of Leaky going to Uvalde a year or so ago.

Take Care!
