# Awesome Motorcycle Trips In Texas *By James Hills, mantripping.com — Updated August 2024* Texas is a fabled land for those who love freedom and the thrill of the open road. One of our friends, Mike from TheGentlemanRacer.com, just came back from an incredible cross-country road trip from Cleveland to Los Angeles. Along the way, he spent some time exploring Austin, Texas. Here's some of his favorite motorcycle trails in the area. I loved riding the Ace Scrambler because it gave me the looks and style of a classic 60’s or 70’s motorcycle with the modern comfort and convenience of today’s bikes. Every time I would stop at a gas station or pull over to grab a drink someone would come up and ask what year it was, or how long did it take me to restore it, that is how you know Cleveland got the retro look just right. Since I have been touring around the US on my [Cleveland Ace Scrambler](https://clevelandcyclewerks.com/), I have had some amazing experiences and ridden some great roads. Having recently spent several days touring around Texas I made up this short list of some of my favorite rides in the Lone Star State.  Guys Trip Destinations and Getaway Ideas [BLOG Five Things Every Travel Blogger Wishes Destinations Would Do To Make Writing...   Read More →](https://ads.flowmediamarketing.com/api/flowads/click/redirect?url=https%3A%2F%2Fflowmediamarketing.com%2Farticles%2Fwhat-every-travel-blogger-wishes-destinations-would-do-to-make-writing-about-them-easier.html&id=655&type=blog&site=mantripping) [BLOG What Do Gen Z Travelers Think About Cruising And Where Do They Want To Go Next?   Read More →](https://ads.flowmediamarketing.com/api/flowads/click/redirect?url=https%3A%2F%2Fflowmediamarketing.com%2Finsights%2Fwhat-do-gen-z-travelers-think-about-cruising-and-where-do-they-want-to-go-next.html&id=654&type=blog&site=mantripping) [MANTRIPPING Guys Night Out Ideas: 35 Fun Activities and Things to Do With The Boys   Read More →](https://ads.flowmediamarketing.com/api/flowads/click/redirect?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.mantripping.com%2Ftravel%2Fguys-night-out-ideas-fun-activities-and-things-to-do.html&id=375&type=blog&site=mantripping) We may earn a commission from qualifying purchases. ## Navasota/Burton Loop This route will take you through beautiful ranchland, across Brazos river, and to the Bahia Trail.
