The road southeast out of Palestine to Alderbranch was my favorite route to work the Vette when we lived there, although I never took it all the way to Rusk. Also, in the panhandle, Hwy 86 from Estelline to Tulia can be a real thrill and is scenic.

Please be careful on those roads.
No offense to anyone, but the reason I stopped going on Corvette cruises is because people were driving like idiots. I saw everything from passing right before the crest of a hill to passing through a blind turn.
It's one thing to hit another car, but a complete other thing to nail another rider. We don't survive head-on collisions nearly as much as someone with a cage does.
Have fun, but please be smart.

Some of the twisties in the Hill Country are littered with cattle crossings, and some of them are not in good condition. Ok if you're on a motorcycle and can cross on one side or another, not so good in a low sitting, wide vehicle. Been there, done that.

I prefer to use the Harley Davidson Ride Planner and my Roads/Backroads of TX book.
