Around 6 miles after you turn left there is a quaint “Cartoon Saloon”. It is not a real saloon: it’s a walk-in Wild West photo-op beside the road. The owners/creators are there sometimes on weekends.
Continuing to follow RR-473 into Comfort it dead ends at TX-27. Take a right and continue towards Center Point. You can either continue on TX-27 till the Center Point Stoplight (and turn left on FM-480) or for a little fun, turn left on FM-1350W to wind a little into Center Point. FM-1350W ends at FM-480 and turn left heading toward Camp Verde.
FM-480 Ends at TX-173 right next to Camp Verde. Camp Verde has a quint general store and a good restaurant with plenty of Parking.

Turning right on TX-16 takes you into Medina after 2 miles or turn left on TX-16 and go toward Bandera. Continue to follow TX-16 which runs down the center or Bandera. Continue left on TX-16 at the end of downtown and head toward Boerne. After 10 miles, turn left onto TX-46 which ends up back in Boerne.
This route has some nice turns for a gentle ride through the hill county. This is more of a leisure ride than a challenging ride but goes through some smaller hill country towns where there are some restaurants and quint stores.
Road Conditions:
All roads on this route are chip-seal and pose no construction challenges, except as noted:
FM-2828: Between TX-173 and TX-16, after around 3 miles, there is a 3-mile stretch where the WESTBOUND lane has been torn up for construction. The base on these patches (multiple “15 ft patches”) is dirt/gravel, warranting a slightly slower speed.
