Ultranutz is spot on with his reccomendations. Especially 16 to Bandera, the Three Sisters, the Cowboy Bar. Luickenbach is a must! Great Pulled Pork Sandwich there, almost always live music and always cold beer.
The only thing I could add is eating at the Oasis on Lake Travis. Great place to watch the sunset. There is also a Carlos and Charlies near there. If you are a Johnny Cash fan, check out a bar named the Mean Eyed Cat. At night there is always Austin's version of Bourbon/Beale street on 6th for partying.

Just got notified from the Airlines that we're going to have to re-route our trip to avoid Denver. Huge snow storm hitting there, and we might not be able to get out. So we're going to try Phoenix or Vegas. Late change, but as a biker you always hate hearing SNOW!

Are you going to be packin? Not every biker in Texas has a concealed handgun permit but every biker has got something or other either in his pants or saddlebags.
We take a very liberal view and interpretation of the 2nd Amendment here. If you were to try and kill one of us, we will kill you back. Other than that, this is a great time to come and visit before it gets so hot. Yes, the heat down here will kill you too.

Damn Texas threads.......^$&*#(^$%(......I have got to get my *** out of CA and into permanent residence in TX. Yes, riding here is amazing (especially in my backyard), and the weather is perfect, but this state pisses me off more every day. Then I see this from Perry a few days ago:
"There is still a place for freedom that is very much alive and well," the Republican governor added. "That place is called Texas."
Every day I stay here I actually feel like I am allowing myself to be taken advantage of by the Libtards who control this once great (a LONG time ago) state. Damn I need to get to Texas!!
