Austin Monthly Adventure Ride
March 1 @ 8:30 am - 4:00 pm
Free
Adventure Riders of Austin meet up for a monthly dual-sport adventure ride on the first Saturday of every month. All riders are invited to attend.
The group meets at 8:30 AM at the Texaco gas station/convenience store on Hamilton Pool Road in Dripping Springs (intersection of Hwy 12 and Hamilton Pool Rd/3238). Stands up at 9 AM.
There is no designated ride leader for the monthly ride (i.e. no one is in charge). Riders self-organize into small groups and then enjoy a fun day in the Texas hill country.
There are 12 different planned routes, one for every month of the year. These planned routes do not always include dirt because of the distance they have to ride west from Austin to get to the dirt. The shorter pavement-only routes include the best pavement to be found in the Hill Country (outside of the Three Twisted Sisters). The routes that include dirt tend to be longer due to the distance the group has to ride to get to dirt.
March: Willow City Loop, 174 miles, pavement only
You can download GPS files from the event page in advance.
All routes are suitable for any street legal dual sport or adventure bike. There is no public single-track or off-road riding in the Hill Country, so all routes are ridden on public roads.
