Okay, okay -- knowing that we don't necessarily live in the greatest part of Texas, let alone the U.S., for quick 2-3 hour rides, I'm wondering if you have found any good "can't miss" roads in our area...

It is a given that the Sam Houston Forest is a good bet. But what about the areas south of town?

Suggestions, please. Just trying to expand my options here... Thanks in advance.

 

I know some great little day rides that are in the NE section of Houston area. Give me a shout sometime. There are some to the NW as well.

I've got a group of folks for whom I do some ride planning. Any routes you have would be appreciated... And I'd be glad to give you a shout if / when we get in your neighborhood.... I'm in the Clear Lake Area (between Houston and Galveston) where everything is flat, brown, or framed in refinery steel gray.....

 

Daughter used to live in Clear Lake area... know just what you mean! lol

When it warms up a bit I'll give ya a hollar... can go on an adventure.
*When my kids would ask if I was lost I would tell them we weren't lost.. we were on an adventure, just haven't gotten there yet*
Love riding for the journey - not the destination......

 

There are all kinds of nice riding around Houston. You can go Conroe, Montgomery, Anderson area. Or you can go through Richmond, Fulshear, Brookshire, Katy area. Or you can go through Sealy and ride Cat Springs, Bellville, Brenham. Or you can extend even farther and go to Round Top, New Ulm, Fayetville area. Just get the mapquest dialed in and start looking! Good luck with your riding!

 

I'm on the NW side off 290 and most of our riding has been over to Fulshear, north to Carlos, and around Lake Conroe & Lake Livingston.

 

toddville road would be cool. getting there and away from there would suck though. I wish I knew some routs but piney woods are within a days ride.
