Written Directions

Start your route in Four Points, TX which is just outside the north west side of Austin next to Lake Travis. From here just head west on Bulluck Hollow Road and it will T into FM FM 2769 - take a left (head west). Follow this road as it winds next to the lake and it changes names to Lime Creek Rd. The road will wind its way away from the lake and T into W. Whitestone Blvd. Take a left and now you'll be heading west on FM 1431. Now you're going to stay on this road for a while as it goes through Jonestown, Lago Vista, Smithwick, and finally takes you to the routes Marble Falls.

Scenery

This road runs out of Austin to the northwest and then skirts along the north edge of Lake Travis. Just a little out of Austin you will pass the famous County Line BBQ on the Colorado River.

Drive Enjoyment

On the stretch that is the north side of the lake there are some curves that require the rider to slow to about 10mph to negotiate; there is some gravel present. Note: IF THE SIGN SAYS 10MPH, BETTER GO 10MPH.

Tourism Opportunities

Plenty of stops in Austin, in Four Corners and also Volente. If you continue on you will hit FM 1431 that will take you all the way to Marble Falls.

This is probably the most technical ride I've done so far. The posted speed limits are really not to be used as suggestions. Tons of twisties,hills,dips curves and what have you. Big sections of this ride you are constantly busy. Downshift,brake, roll off throttle, roll on throttle, clutch, lean. Fun ride but not for a beginner.

Great road for twisties and rolling hills. Lots of fun in the turns and curves. Use care since you are sharing the road with lots of others. Saw a car rollover in the ditch about ten miles out of Marble Falls. A few places to stop along the way and great food at either end................1

This was a fun road to ride. Scenery is nice, bunch of trees plus houses here and there. Nice for a passenger to look at but driver needs to pay attention to road, signs, and speed limit. Its an exciting ride with turns after turns with multiple hills. Excellent ride!!!
