Hello everyone!..my name is Greg I am from Georgetown Tx and been riding motorcycles for a long time. Dirt bikes, road bikes dual sport, and now a new KTM 390 adventure bike. Got on this forum to meet other adventure riders that live near and far to ride with. I have done 2 rides and camps to the Hill Country area! man what a blast!! I have road most of the paved roads in the hill country throughout the years but never the back county dirt roads and really dig the bike camping.

Would like to do the 2023 Hill County 500, need to find out who to contact on that? Can anyone help with that? I already made reservations for camping at the Kerrville -Schreiner Park Friday, Saturday and Sunday for Memorial Day weekend.
Look forward to hearing from y,all,...Greg

Welcome to the site! :wave:

How are you liking the 390 for camping and traveling? I have a 2020 and 2022 390 for my son and daughter to ride. The goal is to get them luggage and do some traveling with them.

What kind of mods have you done and which do you really like or not like?

Welcome to TWT!

I'm heading to the Hill Country 500 from Cypress. I've reserved a tent site at the Kerrville-Schreiner Park and you're welcome to share the space.

There could be a couple more guys show up from my regular group (can't call this a 'normal' group), but the site has plenty of room.

Let me know, and I'll reserve a patch of grass and a tree for you.

Hey Scott,

Thanks for the welcome, I rode my dual sport with my daughter and brothers' kids,.. lots of fun! They are grown up now and in collage and i found myself staring at my CRF to much in the garage and decided to get a new bike! Have not really done any mods on the KTM yet still getting the feel of the bike. I have upgraded the handguards, the OEM"s are cheap plastid and I installed Tusk Pannier racks and Olympus soft bags witch I love! That's it so far..

A bit of advice based on experience - the campsites on the river are noisy and 'busy'. If the noise and commotion doesn't bother you, great. If it does, I recommend you change your campsite to the 'non-river' side.

I like the Fawn Hide-Away section and have reserved site 63.

@TGTUMBLEWEED, this might be applicable to you, too.

The offer still stands for both of you - if you want to pitch your tent on site 63, I'm happy to share.

Riding in Arkansas is amazing.

In the fall, there's a charitable event called the Rich Mountain Rendezvous (Sept 14-17, Queen Wilhelmina State Park in Mena). It's a great ride with great people for a great cause.

Check it out here
