Randy's Texas GS Adventures

Hello, my name is Randy Eads and I live in Austin, Texas. My favorite pastime is to ride the backroads of the Lone Star State on my BMW R1200GS. "GS" stands for Gelande-Strasse in German. This translates to Trail and Street in English. My translation is that it means "Go Somewhere" in Texas. My latest addition to the stable is a BMW R1200GS HP2. I am a member of the BMW Motorcycle Owners of America. A few of my articles have been published in the BMWMOA Owners News. I also a member of The Hill Country BMW Riders of Austin Texas. I created this page to share some of my favorite Texas backroads and to encourage other GS riders to get off the pavement and wander around the dirt roads. You'll also find a few of my other interests, out-of-the-ordinary places to visit, and some other things that might be of interest to someone. Just click on the links below to wander through my page:
