The bridge is really cool, and so are the roads in that area.
Hope to go soon myself.
Cheers, patrice

Quite a few posts on this site, and others as well. This is a popular destination.

From San Saba go north on TX 16 about 2 miles; left on FM 500 and go about 20 miles; right on CR 137 down the dirt road about 3/4 mile to the bridge.

I actually just found out that if you type in Regency Suspension Bridge into Google maps, it'll bring up a list of places and the first one is the bridge. Seemed closer when I didn't really know where it was. :lol2:

Been there, wheelied over that! Its a neat place to see, but lots of dusty dirt road and not all that easy to find. I was last there in about on my KLR in '02.


I actually grew up down that way, had friends with a weekend place right by it and remember the old bridge before they redid it in the early 90's It was much cruder before that.

After seeing Bob Phillips drive over the Regency Bridge every Sunday morning for years, I had to go check it out myself.
