Riding Texas Backroads

Post by wheelbender6 »

We based our ride in the town of Fayetteville, TX, this week. The FM road to Friesburg had a rather high speed limit (for a 125cc) of 60mph, but the tight curves kept the cager speeds down.
At Friesburg, we turned north on Stokes road and scooted another 11 curvy, scenic miles, almost to Industry. Speed limit was 50mph, surface was better than average for a county road and we saw very few cars. I think this road would be safe for 50cc scooting as well. Just watch for gravel on the curves.
It was brutally hot, so we really appreaciated the lack of stop lights and stop signs during our ride.
Fayetteville is a charming little town, with a scenic town square and plenty of well preserved vintage homes. We had a great lunch at Orsaks Cafe on the square. We made a return visit after our ride for lemonade and dessert.
