I am thinking about heading out to Davy Crockett sometime in the near future. Does anyone have a favorite section to ride there? I have never been before, and the website isn't super helpful.
Cheers!

Are you wanting single track trails or just forest/county roads in the area? I don't know that they have any single track available like the Sam Houston NF does. As for forest/county roads, just use Google Maps or something similar and pick some roads. I've ridden through and around the DCNF and most of the roads are fun. There are some sections that have a decent bit of sand, but nothing I couldn't get through on my 1200 GS with my son on the back. If it is wet, things could get a bit more "interesting"... 
Thanks, Tourmaster! I am in Austin, and there aren't many public lands around us. Would you say SHNF is a better bet?

This will give you plenty of riding ideas with the exception of single track. I've always enjoyed riding Crockett. Something serene about the place.

No legal single track in Crockett forest, SHNF has the whole westside open and marked! Just a little sand there too.
And don't let Tourmiester fool you, just because he can do it with his son , when the Houston county roads are at their worst, it's tough on a big bike.

Crockett has some great dual sport roads .... Sam Houston has the single track which is awesome with all the help to ge the trails open and dual sport roads.
