+1... I can't think of a better route.

 

By the time you ride ROT - riding in Houston will be easy......

 

We are really coming from Reno Nevada and actually going to San Antonio first to visit some friends then going to Houston, coming back to SA then going to rideto Luckenbackthen back to SAthen to Austin.

 

We have Street Vibrations here in Reno, not as big as ROT but still thousands of bikes. I can't wait to be there in Texas, just love your state.

 

I can only assume texan321 WAS once a texan but he now hails from Florida! I don't agree with his statement. Houston drivers are the worst I've ever ridden with, incl. Chicago, LA, Wash D.C., NY city, Paris, and Rome. ROT may be a bunch of drunken crazies but nothing like the 80-90 mph circus on Houston highways. Ain't nuthin' like it, to be avoided if at all possible, 2 wheels or 4! IMless thanHO!

 

OK, now thatI know where you're coming from... I change my route. depending on your time, you can eithertravelfrom SA on I-10, turn south at The Grand Parkway #99 to US Alt 90 Northeast to Missouri City, which is probably the quickest - but not the most scenic. the best "bike" ride is to pick up US Alt 90 in Seguin (about 20 miles East of SA) and follow it to Missouri City. Alt 90 parallels I-10.

 

In that case, take I10, pick up 36 south at Sealy, then on to Rosenberg, 59 to Mo. City. Good Luck, Mark

 

Thanks to all who helped, ride safe and stay safe.

 

Sorry I was not more clear, my husband complains about that with me all of the time. Thank you for all of the info.

 

Coming to Missouri City from San Antonio I would exit off I-10 at Hwy 99 (just east of Katy) and go south to 90A. Turn left on 90A and go straight through Sugar Land into Missouri City.

Leaving to go to Austin I would get on Beltway 8 (try to avoid rush hour) and go north and take 290 to Austin. The only bad part about the Beltway is the bridges are really high and have low guard rails. It a but nerve wrecking the first time you you exit and have to ride into the clouds. Between Missouri City and 290 you will need $2.50 worth of quarters for each bike unless you want to sit in line at the full serv window.
