From what I had read of the 3 sisters Texas Ranch Roads 335,336 & 337 these roads promised much and as far as I am concerned, they delivered. As twisties go we have much more exciting roads here in Switzerland but these roads offered fast corners, sudden drops and immense fun without the feeling of disaster waiting should you make the slightest error and when set against the backdrop of lovely autumnal west Texas scenery in brilliant and warm sunshine it was no wonder that every oncoming motorcyclist had a grin on his face from ear to ear as I probably did.All along 335 came a steady stream of exotic sports cars, Porches, Ferraris etc. It was quite obvious they were on the same road for the same reason and it was not until I came across a café and shop as I dropped into Leakey called the Frio Canyon Motorcycle Stop where a lot of the cars were parked up that I discovered it was a 3 day rally run by the San Antonio Exotic Car Club. The Frio Canyon Bike Stop is quite new, less than 18 months old, which is probably why I knew nothing about it until I stumbled upon it.
Kerrville, when I rolled into it later that afternoon was much bigger than I thought and boasted a massive Wal-mart which was handy as I had taken so many pictures and so much film I was in desperate need of a new SD card.The Best Western I had booked here was just fine and I was allocated another massive room. On the way down to the Wal-Mart I had spotted a good Steakhouse called the Cowboy and decided to eat there that night. I wasn’t sorry; I had a superb meal there and retired that evening very full and satisfied.
