This is a great day ride from most anywhere near Houston. Start at FM1462 headed west from SR-288. You'll get a couple of sweepers within the first two miles and in just a couple more miles, you'll be scraping your pegs on CR-42. The fun doesn't stop there either.Be sure to stop at Newman's bakery in Bellville and have lunch at either Round Top or Fayetteville.
The ride back from Fayetteville is more direct than the ride up, but there are still some fun turns in that section too.
