Sorry for the late posting-----Let's do this "NEW HIP" ride!! I will be walking 1 low water crossing!! This is a much better weekday route; due to the very heavy weekend traffic on ... moreHamilton Pool Road.
A Pedernales Pedal (counter clockwise) version, from a different/new starting location (see below)!!
Hilly, but a very scenic/pretty route, with only a few turns---very different for me!! We'll ride west past Hamilton Pool, crossing the Pedernales River into Cypriss Mill and on west, before turning south on Texas 281 into Johnson City. We'll go east out of Johnson City on Robinson Road winding our way past the Pedernales Park entrance on our meandering ride back to Ranch Road 12, before turning north back to our starting location----only 7 lines on the Q-sheet!! Just under 3100 ft. of climbing (per RidewithGPS). We'll have a STORE STOP, in Johnson City, at 33 miles.

Bring snacks and lunch food for Saturday. We'll stop for dinner in a cafe about 10 miles from Lake Whitney S.P., pick up food for breakfast, and ride on to the park. After a group breakfast we'll head back on Sunday. We can stop at a grocery to resupply Sunday morning.
Chip in $20 per person to cover camping and Sunday breakfast. Funds collected which exceed expenses will be donated to charity. Additional funds are needed to buy your dinner, as well as snacks and lunch along the route, park admission ($6), and to contribute to the SAG driver's expenses.
