Are you ready for another unforgettable day in Texas? The Willow City Loop is a classic local treasure. Today, you'll pedal through the undulating country roads all the way to the picturesque town of Willow City. The terrain is both rugged and beautiful, speckled with Texas bluebonnets and the famous Indian Paintbrush throughout the springtime. Take a break and refuel at Harry's on the Loop, a true staple for anyone lucky enough to ride these roads. From Willow City, you can choose to head back to Fredericksburg or challenge yourself with some extra miles through the beautiful canyons and hills just north of Harry's, where you're likely to have the road all to yourself. As the sun sets, gather with your fellow riders. We’ll dine as a group and celebrate your Texas-size achievement with some Texas-sized Italian food.

We've reached the halfway point of our adventure, and today is a perfect opportunity to explore on your own as some guests depart and others arrive. Whether you choose to get some bonus miles from a previous route, ride the short loop, or discover the charming side streets and wineries of Fredericksburg, the possibilities are endless. One of our top suggestions is the Luckenbach Loop, where you can spend some time with this amazing community and take in some great live tunes. Luckenbach is a true gem where "everybody is somebody." As the day comes to a close, gather with your fellow riders and make new friends as you share stories over dinner at one of Fredericksburg's favorite beer gardens.

Get those legs in gear for another epic adventure! We'll head out to Kerrville, located on the banks of the Guadalupe River. On the way, you'll pass through the ghost town of Morris Ranch, known for the thoroughbred horse ranch that thrived in the 1800s. Today, only historic buildings remain, but they offer a glimpse into the past and provide a fascinating backdrop for a ride along the best hills in the area. Challenge yourself on all the undulating climbs that stand between you and your final night at Texas Ride Camp. As the day comes to an end, continue exploring the charming town of Fredericksburg on your own as you indulge in dinner at one of the town's top-rated restaurants. Your guides will always be happy to share their recommendations with you.

Overview

Our final big day in Texas hill country is crammed with adventure, so get those legs in gear as we embark on 70 miles (115 kilometers) and climbing 4,300 feet (1,300 m) of elevation. Start your day with a delicious breakfast before we head northwest towards the sleepy and historic town of Doss. Tackle the locally famous Welgehausen climb on your way to Enchanted Rock, a massive dome of pink granite. The name Enchanted Rock comes from an interpretation of Native American folklore by early Spanish and Anglo settlers. The endless rolling hills of Texas will test both your legs and your lungs, but the picturesque views and sense of accomplishment will make it all worth it. This is typical Texas, and it's totally terrific. As the sun sets, gather with your fellow riders and reflect on the accomplishments and memories of the past week over dinner together. It's truly been a wonderful week, and as you say your farewells to your newfound friends, we hope your memories of your Texas adventure stay with you forever.

Overview

It's time to say goodbye to this beautiful area today. Rise at your leisure and conclude your Texas adventure with one last ride through the hill country this morning. Choose from the classic Cain City Loop or revisit Luckenbach to say farewell to your favorite country music icon. Or, enjoy a leisurely breakfast and take in the peacefulness of the morning. Please ensure you are prepared for check-out from the hotel by 11:00 AM. We hope you've had a fantastic experience and we look forward to seeing you again soon!
