This passed weekend my friends and I took a ride down to Gruene, Texas. That is pronounced green if your not from these parts. This is one of my favorite rides in the area, it has lots of curves and when you get out on Hamilton pool road the traffic is lite. Once you're there let your throttle open up and enjoy the ride, the scenery is great and the twisties keep you leaned over and having a good time.
The plan was to head over to Gruene, have lunch at the Grist Mill restaurant and do a little shopping and then make the run home. Gruene is a great little town, it has a lot of history, if your a history buff you could spend quite a bit of time looking around at all the historical markers and old buildings. The other thing about Gruene is that it has had many a famous person through it. The movie Michael with John Travolta was filmed at the Gruene Dance Hall, also any Texan knows that Gruene Hall is where George Strait started out.
After we ate and walked around a bit we headed over to the Dealer just around the corner from where we were at to see if there was anything there was we couldn't live without. From there we took River Road and then hit the Devils Backbone on our way back home. It was a great ride, great weather and great friends. Can you think of a better way to spend the day?
