I love the route that goes down 41 to 377 and into Rock Springs and then off to 277 to Del Rio. It is wildly preferable to the Interstate and Highway 190 West when a fella sits a motorbike. I don't think I've ever passed the Llano down there where I haven't seen someone fishing or simply luxuriating in that cool, clear water. I took the route last month. It's usually only a summer ride from Austin because the hours of daylight needed to make it in one day. On the other hand, it can also be hotter than pure dee ol' billy hell.
Thanks for reading and commenting, James. It occurs to me that low water crossings — which are never seen on the big highways or the big towns — are a treasure. I may get around to writing "Low Water Crossings I Have Known and Loved."
Capital idea. But in writing such a piece, you should be compelled to address their danger, as well. I think it is particularly prevalent in Texas where the ground out west is rock and rain does not get soaked up much by soil and runs to the arroyos and the draws and then down into the rivers that flood the low water crossings. Safe trip, my friend.
