The longest route is 103 miles and goes through Manor, Hutto, Johah, Weir and Coupland. This will be a great tour of the famed Texas Blackland Prairie ecosystem. Home to many of the native grasses this area supported bison herds and became a major farming center before the end of the 18th century. This route takes the riders close to Granger Lake where two families of Whooping Cranes have recently been sighted.
