Houston Area Riders

I just moved to the Houston area from central California and am looking to find other adv riders in the houston area.

Welcome to Houston I am in the Meyerland area .

Thanks Dave. I dont know where Meyerland is right off. I am north east of houston in Kingwood.

Near Reliant Stadium .

I just left the Bush airport/Humble area a few weeks back.

Most of the folks I hung with lived in the NW/Cypress area.

You'll find Houston can be regional, in the sense no one wants to cross town to visit, they'd prefer meeting up somewhere outside the urban area.

If i had to go to Katy, fer instance, it'd be a round-about trip through Montgomery and Waller counties.

From where you're at, ride out FM 1485 from New Caney or north on FM 2100 from Huffman. They meet and change designation in a sweeping curve. At the south end of that curve, Plum Grove road branches off. Take it, watch for the not-so well marked 90 degree turns, and then follow FM 1010 (hang a right) to the backside of Cleveland.

That's about as good as it gets on your side of town.

Sorry.

Hi.

I just joined ADV yesterday. Live near you, in Summerwood subdivision, think 2:00 on Beltway 8.

Interestingly (to me anyway) I am in California this week. Palm springs.

getting my Tiger this weekend, an early Christmas present from my wife!

Cypress here. Gimme a holler.

Live in the Woodlands area but like to ride all over. The National Forest area is a lot of fun.
Give me a shout. I can show you what I have found so far.

Hey Nchristie,

I just got my Tiger mid October from my wife.
You are going to love that bike.

Hello! I'm in Cypress. NW of Houston on 290.
There are alot of dirt roads around Richards and Shiro, also Bellville.
Don't forget the Sam Houston National Forest. It has single track trails and dirt roads.

We ought to get a ride together.

I'm in Atascocita. My bike is more street oriented at the moment, but after taking a hilariously fun ride down a gravel road last week, I'm going to get it setup to be a bit more ADV ready.

Hey, maybe we start a Houston ADV Chapter. we can all be prospects at once We need to plan a first ride soon! Maybe a breakin/meet and greet dirt road ride up around the forest.

This is relevant to my interests.



Once I get a new set of tires that is.

Sounds good to me .


Dave

Excusses excusses! I am sure we would all be glad to pitch in and laugh at you while you patch what ya got on this first ride!

Seriously, I dont do this often, have you tried letting some air out of your tires when riding dirt? Try about 18 PSI fnt/rear. carry a little bycle pump with you to pump back up for the highway ride home.

harsh!

So far it was just the one time.. I've stayed away from dirt.. now I'm kicking myself for not trying it sooner.. (well other than 20 years ago on an xr80 )

I'd give it another go.. I don't care.


Also, I was wearing my GoPro that day.. pretty sure I was doing everything wrong.. sitting most of the time.. feet flying off the pegs a few times.. good times!

Spring Branch here. I grew up in the Humble area and was riding the trails in the woods where Kingwood is now. Lots of good and tight trail riding around the San Jacinto river if you know where to go. There are some long dirt roads on the other side of Lake Houston too.

Street-ride, Saturday AM? North Houston-ish?

I though we were going to take r2ro out in the dirt?
Besides my Beemer is in the shop.

This!
