Hill Country Bike Rides

 

Each Saturday morning of the festival there is a 26-mile bike ride through the Hill Country Highways and byways. Bring your helmet and water bottle, and your bicycle and meet at 9:00 a.m. at the VIP desk by the festival office. Rides are for intermediate touring and at least 10-speed equipment is recommended. The bike rides are free of charge.  Escort/water vehicle is on hand.

Route:  From the Quiet Valley Ranch the group will head north on Medina Hwy (TX Hwy 16 toward Kerrville) for about 2 Miles.  They will then turn east on Lower Turtle Creek Road (FM 2771) and travel this lovely rural road for 6 miles until they reach Bandera Hwy (TX Hwy 173).  Then it's north on 173 for roughly 9 miles back to Medina Hwy (Hwy 16) in South Kerrville. Then the group hangs a left and heads on home, another 8 miles, to the Quiet Valley Ranch.  This last leg has a few good hills, so be prepared for a good workout.
