This is a very quiet scenic ride thru east Williamson County, starting from Lake Pflugerville (North parking lot).
A quiet, (mostly country roads) ride thru northeast Travis, southeast Williamson, & northwest Bastrop Counties. We'll pedal by Taylor's Murphy Park & Lake, thru "bustling" Thrall, and by the scenic/historic Lawrence Chapel, Cemetary, & log cabin. We'll plan for a quick visit with "The Friendly Donkeys" on the way home thru Coupland --- bring some "snacks" for the donkeys!! We'll be on many quiet country roads for this mostly flat (only 1892 ft. of climbing--per RidewithGPS). We'll have TWO STORE STOPS: at 28 miles (the Food Market in Thrall) and at 53 miles (Citgo Station in Coupland).
