I know there's been a map posted of "The Devils Thigh Bone" but what else is around the area that has some good scenery and some nice twisties. Post up what you know and a map if you've got one.

If you want some really good twisties head down 20 to 287 south, go about 7 miles and take a right at the one and only redlight. its 157 south and it's awesome. be ready and don't go to fast you first couple of times, once you come to the end of it if you still want more when you cross 67 916 keeps going, be carefull. this is where I took a nice little gaunt through the country side at about 45 MPH.......lol, landed in the grass with minor damage. I am not a road racer but I went out with about 25 of them and that stuff just isn't for me......but it was an awesome road and I did learn alot about what the bike is capable of, I am no longer scared to lean the piss out of it.......:)

Here is the thighbone (though at 800x600 its pretty much usless). maybe someone could host the image? I'll email it to whoever wants it at full rez.

Jose, you talking about something more rural? I haven't been on the southside of DFW much, but there is some reasonably good riding north of the mid cities; I'd just try to keep it rural if your actually out to just ride.

That looks like fun, hows the traffic on it?

I've only done maybe 1/6 of it and that was a couple hours worth of speedy riding. I haven't been on most of it so I really couldn't say how the whole thing is.

Doing the whole thing in one day would be quite an undertaking.
