Thanks for giving us folks in Junction a shout out! Next time your planning to come thru give me a shout.
Now I'm home sick. Texas Hill Country is the best! Never should have left...
Absolutely. It's heaven on earth to me.
Great video. Looking forward to riding there one day. Beautiful country. And by the way, I have a Harley and wave at everyone.
You too me to... Luckenbach Texas with Waylon and Willie and the boys.
This successful life we're livin' got us feuding like the Hatfields and McCoys. Between Hank Williams' pain songs and Newberry's train songs and Blue Eyes Cryin' in the Rain. Out in Luckenbach, Texas ain't nobody feelin' no pain
Sorry Tim, I couldn't resist. Awesome video as always!
Immortalized through song. No worries, that's a great tune. :)
Tim Kreitz Adventures I worked with a guy who listened to Willie's Roadhouse on XM constantly so every time you say West Texas I sing "out in the west Texas town of El Paso".
Glad to see you still uploading, I miss the live streams. You're the type of genuine guy who deserves much more ad revenue than you get!
I appreciate that very much. Though I'm less concerned with ad revenue than I am in just having the right kind people find and enjoy the vids, it would be nice to see a burst in growth, but I've pretty much given up on that dream. I'm just gonna keep making content because it's fun to do and I know good folks like you appreciate it. Cheers.
I live about 15 miles south of where y'all ate those streets are very familiar. Bandera is a great place to enjoy the hill country.
Next time we're down there, I'll holler at ya.
Man I absolutely LOVE these longer format videos Tim. Awesome adventure.
Thanks man, I do too. I've found that my editing style gets a little 'looser' and more like a documentary. Cheers, my brother.
October 2020 I rode from Indiana to ride Hill Country. Last time I rode the area I was stationed at Fort Hood TX 45 years ago. Love the area.
It's beautiful for sure. Cheers.
What a fun ride with you, Cliff & Matt and everyone else! Enjoyed all of it Tim, the views, the food, the ride!
Thanks, Basia. It was so much fun I didn't wanna come come. :0)
Love the Vlog can’t wait to get back on my bike and be free.
Thanks!
Luckenbach, TX... getting back to the basics of love. Gotta love Waylon.
That song saved the town. LOL.
Loved the feel of this video, I think I smiled as much as you probably did.
Thanks for sharing this adventure!
My pleasure and thank you for the kind words. I'm glad you enjoyed it. :)
Very nice area of Texas, awesome video. The clips at the end where hilarious!
Thanks, man. At some point, I need to compile a full-length blooper reel. I have tons of that stuff.
Those mirrors are for Luckenbach, just so you know... Great ride brother Tim B-)
LOL. Right you are. I must stop Luckenbach on the times I was defeated. Ha! #GrandFunkReference
Never gets old.
:0)
okay Tim I love your videos but the part afterwards had me rolling I love seeing you interact with your friends and having a good time🤣😂🤣😂
Thank you, ma'am. Those are some of the best guys you could ask for. They inspire me. I hope I'm still burning up the corners on two wheels when I'm pushing 80 years of age!
Welcome to my neck of the woods, Tim! Shoot, wish I would have known you were in the area....could have shown you a few cool spots....next time!
Ubetcha! :-)
Great video, every time i see a video of riding in the texas hills it reminds me i need to scoot down there and spend a week exploring.
You'd love it! :0)
Nice. Another excellent video.
Thanks!
Another awesome trip!!! Beautiful!
And a recital in editing style! Loved this!!!
Much appreciated; three days to shoot it and a week in the editing bay. Hahaha!
awesome scenery , love the corners .cant wait to move to texas , leave new york behind
Great adventure Tim,love that you share your experiences with us,and yes when I first subsscribed to your channel I did binge watch all the episodes
Thanks a million. It's hard to believe Tim Kreitz Adventures will be four years old next month. Thanks for watching and binging! :0)
Tim another cool adventure. I’m going to have to add Texas to my bucket riding list lol
You'd love it. Thanks, man!
I've got my fix of a Tim Kreitz adventure video, yay. I liked the town Luckenbach and that rooster, that was so cool. Great vid Tim. RSM8
Thanks, Kev. Luckenbach is forever immortalized in song by Waylon Jennings. That's one of the reasons it's so popular.
Love the editing you do man...the music in the back and the att to detail is spot on Tim!
Thank you, Alex!
I’m late watching but great video as always!
No worries. Thanks, Tom!
Thanks Tim, great video.. people are geting so intreged with keeping the camera right in their face and you don't get to see the great adventure they are having.. thank you for giving us the ride.
Like always Tim. Hell of a video I’m so jealous you get to ride through there almost anytime you want
So true. Texas has it all. Thanks, man!
One of the best adventures yet! Cheers.
Much appreciated. I was rather fond of this one, too. :0)
Great video as always TK! You know this is one of my dream rides. Someday...
Make it happen. You won't regret it, my friend. Cheers and thanks!
The wide open sweepers there look amazing it's great to see another video from you tim
Thank you kindly, sir. It was nice to be able to go film something. :0)
Do you know how much this made me miss Texas? The hill country has green and trees somewhat like here and I heard you say humidity and that always comes with green plants and grass LOL. You were a long ways from home on this trip. Oh BTW I noticed there was no W Texas 80 MPH speed limits LOL
Exactly. They keep it limited to 70 and 75 in the hill country due to population density. :)
Always look forward to your videos thank you
My pleasure, Luey. :)
Three things you need to know when riding the Hill country:
1. When you see a gas station, you had best fill up.
2. Bring water
3. Under no circumstances ride at night, deer are everywhere!
So true.
Great content as always!
Thanks, Pete!
Ahh random and un-planned... excellent - I'll cosy into my chair here...
I can see why you love it out there, so cool, scenic, historic and love the old style interiors to the places, like where you ate.
Not waving back... I mean what even IS that? Half the time they're just accountants and the like just pretending to be cool.
Looked a prefect road to give it some throttle :)
Ha ha - loved the outro/out-takes.
Great video as always man.
Thanks, Cap! I can hardly wait to get back there again. :-)
I love it when you go to the hill country. When I saw the title I thought you were in Germany for a minute, now I’ve watched I understand why?
From the culture to the architecture to the lay of the land, there are many similarities for sure. Cheers and thanks, Tony!
My folks live in Fredericksburg and I fell victim to the tourist traps a couple years back. Couldn’t believe how many people visited there on the weekends. I still have some hot sauces I bought there. Luckenbach was a good time too. You should have recruited some old German folks and jammed out on the stage there. Great video.
The funnest part about that area is getting to speak German all day if I want to. I have a feeling that's where I'm gonna spend my retirement years. :-)
It looks like you guys had a lot of fun ... the weather was cooperating as well.
It threatened rain a few times and was cloudy a bunch (as you can tell at times in the vid), but we managed to stay dry. I just hate how a cloudy or partly cloudy day washes all the color out of the GoPro footage. LOL.
Beautiful area !
Indeed it is. :-)
Good stuff Tim!!!
Much appreciated. :0)
Nice adventure Tim
Thank you, sir!
I would wave to you. I ride in my country. Next year I'm going to move to TX. I hope to ride with you. Hugs!
good food , awesome places , rooster pics :P what can i ask for more :P
Thanks, Keith. I miss that place every time I leave it.
Hectic crazy week. TKA video. All better now.
Much, much appreciated, sir. Have a great weekend. :)
Sunday morning riding back on youtube lightning follows...
Hahaha! We're getting back in the groove. :)
Oh look there's beer in here!
-Cliff
Ha!
Well I put it in there so...I kinda knew already.
:-)
i love adventures like this man...great video ...was that flying chickens hahahaha
Hahaha! I wondered the same thing. He got up there somehow. :0)
The hill county is my second favorite place in Texas right behind Big Bend.
Amen to that. I think we're gonna try to ride down there again in the autumn; such a wondrous place.
Hello!
A good road calming down a relaxed feeling!
2: 26-
What do you eat? :)
Roads in the mountains are beautiful!
A beautiful landscape! !
Many motorcycles and many riders.
A town with an old building has a good feeling. :)
Chickens are cute. LOL.
You and your friend enjoyed a good trip!
Editing of the ending is wonderful! !
It looks like a Jackie chain. : D
Safe ride.
Thank you my friend (^ ^) /
Very much appreciated, my friend. @2:26 We start with corn tortilla chips and salsa, then I am eating enchiladas covered in red chile sauce and topped with fried eggs and Jalapenos; a quintessential Tex-Mex meal. :0)
I see! : D
It looks very tasty! !

Been waiting on this video after the Facebook post!!
It took me all week, but I finally got it edited! Hahaha.
I am moving to San Antonio in July and am looking for good riding routes in Texas. I've charted Motorcycle Diaries' Top 10, but I enjoy watching your videos to help find other more local routes. It is interesting to note that very few motorcycle videos ever say what roads are used...like this one. You show some interesting riding, but other than giving the city, you seldom mention what highway you are on or what route you plan on taking. Some really good videos I have seen show a still shot of Google Maps with the route (or they explain on camera what road they are on). That way it is really easy to follow the action. It would really help others to enjoy your rides more if they knew the routes you take...just saying.
I appreciate the suggestion. Once you move to the Hill Country, I think you'll find that most of these routes are pretty easy to find and are very popular with motorcyclists. You'll suddenly feel like, "I just know I've been here before," and realize you saw it in someone's vid. Cheers and enjoy the area. I sometimes wish I lived in that part of Texas. It's a long haul from the Permian Basin, so we usually only go once per year.
Cool Jeepster on trailer at 4:00!
Oh yeah, tons of cool vehicles down there.
Scalawag sez, “I just replaced a perfectly good bag phone with this? What fer?!?!”
Hahahaha!
We need T-shirts that say "Everything I know about West Texas, I learned from Tim Kreitz Adventures!"
With the channel logo, too.
What a killer idea! That's gonna be the 10K subscriber shirt! Now fingers crossed that we'll get there sooner rather than later. LOL.
@@TimKreitzAdventures umm 10k! where is my t shirt?
I watched the entire thing, just trying to get more then a glimpse at these guys BIKES. Give us some money shots of your sweet motorcycles! What is that red bike a k100? Please tell what the bikes you are all on are? Dying to know. Looks like some Beemers maybe. Do tell!
The burgers in Luckenbach are the best. "Atropy" is a combination of entropy and apathy. 😀
Hahahaha, so in a sense I was right after all. LOL. :)
Do those phones even work anymore?? lol :-) Looked like an awesome weekend away and some bloody great scenery to have on the journey!!
Hahaha. I was astounded at the sight of that thing. At least it wasn't a bag phone! LOL. Cheers and thanks, Andy!
It seems like the only time I make it to the hill country is when I drive through it for work. Usually from Midland to Houston or Midland to Austin. I have yet to ride that area on my bike.
There are so many great roads and places to stop and visit, and a motorcycle is definitely my favorite way to explore down there. The back roads and small towns never end. I'm looking forward to going back next month.
Damn, that lunch made me hungry.
Straight up Tex-Mex for real. It's even better than that place I took you guys to here in West Texas. #deliciousness
I need to take my bike out there one day especially if I go to kerrville
Kerville is a beautiful town. ;-)
" Don't be cock" hilarious! Great episode Tim!
Thanks, Michael! :0)
HEY 2002 was a good year. 😂
LOL. :)
Hey!!! And no message saying Lonnie we’ll be doing lunch here or there. Wanna meet?! Sheesh 😜
I had so many fails on this trip; you don't even know. LOL. What you should do is book yourself a room in Junction at the Legends Inn for next April (11-13) and just spend the whole weekend riding with us. That would be awesome!
Hills! WooHoo!
I do try not to take for granted the amazing scenic hills that I get to ride through all the time that are right on my doorstep.
HaHa! Tim's mouth! Nicely done mate! lol
Luckenbach looked like the type of tourist trap that I'd definitely fall for. I was not expecting to see hands on a cock in this video though. Hmm. Did I just say that?
Loved the outtakes at the end. Reminded me of a Pixar film! But with real people...
Hahahaha! If I had only thought to say that! Cheers and thanks, sir!
Yeah, your point is what Tim ? Nothing wrong with a flip phone from 2002. Actually, I think it was older than that. Lol !
Hahahaha! I think you're right!
Be happy you have warm whether, it's in the mid 30s here, I have never heard of the Texas German term before that is pretty interesting. Go easy on the flip phone owners :)
At least it wasn't a bag phone. LOL! BTW, here's some info on Texas German: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texas_German
I literally looked that up the second your video was over, say what you want about bag phones but they had great reception even though air time was expensive as hell back then :)
So true about Fredericksburg and Lukenbach, beautiful areas but total tourist traps now. I can't believe you were in Ingram and didn't go by the mini Stonehenge, what the hell Tim? :)
Been way too long since I've been on those roads and I really need to get off my butt, stop making excuses and just go.
Thought about it, but I figured Luckenbach would make for a more interesting vid. Next time, perhaps. I've been to that Stonehenge before with my wife and was impressed with it. :0)
What do u think of the front end on the mt-09? I prefer the f-ZED😉-09 personally .
It's been a few years since I rode an FZ-09 (MT-09), but it didn't bother me at the time. That said, just about everything in the FZ line could use better suspension.
Tim Kreitz Adventures I thought u had an fz09 ?
FZ-07. :-)
Tim Kreitz Adventures riiiiiight oops
:0)
Tim was this down at the TWT Strom, Versys, Tenere Thon this past weekend? if so I regret missing you there. I had planned on going but ended up closing on my house and having to move over the weekend.
Dunno, but we saw a lot of those kinds of bikes. It was very busy with riding activity.
I wasn't sure if you were there specifically or if it was just a coincidence. Always a fine time in that area of the Hill country none-the-less.
Absolutely. ;-)
I heard Britt got another bike. Hopefully he’ll join you soon on another episode.
I'm hoping we get to film together on Sunday!
Does he watch your videos on that flip phone?
In 4K! LOL.
So purdy. We got 20" of snow last weekend and 5 more inches on Wednesday ...
According to my calendar mother Nature needs to go blow old man winter and take vacation or something for the next 9 months.
Yeah, I've been seeing news reports about those late winter storms you guys are having. Hang in there!
The Cowboy Store? Wouldn't a cowboy store in the cowboy capital of Texas be just a "store"? Nevermind me... carry on
Hahahaha! Excellent point, sir.
It's like the boots. All these people call 'em "Cowboy boots". We just call 'em boots out west.
I have to add, great job scoring this video. You have the gift of evoking the perfect feeling associated with the visuals you share.
id have waved
Heh-heh, appreciated. I was operating the camera and could not wave, and now wonder if that's part of why they didn't acknowledge. Oh, well it happens often. Cheers!
Have you been to Albert?
I've been through once or twice.
Nice ride, those riders were dicks at 8:25 :-( take it easy dude .....
At least it made for some good comedy on Clif's part. LOL.
I gave up on waving to Harley guys. They act like I don't exist...weird.
If I see it's a Harley, I usually just wait for them to wave first, then I reciprocate. Where I live, I've noticed over the past year or two that waving in general between motorcyclists is on the decline.
@@TimKreitzAdventures I think that's what I will do from now on.
