San Antonio to San Marcos

Getting out of downtown and through the first few miles wasn't a problem. However, getting onto Lookout Road and then onto the service road for I-35 was less than great riding. The initial part of Lookout Road was in terrible condition. And when the road improved, the traffic got heavy.

The service road on I-35 is to be avoided if at all possible. Try to find another route to bypass it. The service road had heavy fast moving traffic and no shoulder.

FM482 was a pretty good road, but it and some other roads before New Braunfels had a lot of heavy trucks.

From New Bruanfels, the roads (especially FM1102 and FM2439 mostly had shoulder and weren't too heavily trafficked.
