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.

Rode this for TXMM 2017 and it was great. It's a tight road, so it's better to ride a smaller bike. I was passing all the sport bikes on my supermoto. The surface is pretty good for power sliding. Forget the scenery, Lime Creek Road is was meant to be dominated.

We lived on this road for 12 years, until '07. The "girl of my dreams" took her first ride on it when she got her license and we bought her a Softail Standard. We loved going to the Blue Bonnet for pie and coffee and then on to Luckenbach....

Easy like Sunday morning. Started about 06:45 on Sunday at Four Points (TX FM2222 & TX FM620), to Volente via FM2769 and Lime Creek Road, Anderson Mill Road and Whitestone Blvd (FM1431) through Jonestown, Smithwick, then Marble Falls at about 09:00. Then US-281 north to Burnett, east through Bertram, and Liberty Hill to Georgetown, TX. From there I traveled south on I-35 back to Austin about 10:30. Circuit trip was 152.7 miles, door to door. Sunday morning traffic is nice!
