Yes! I've traveled in that area too. Lots of good stuff that way!

I love riding in Arkansas! We've rode several of the places you went and they are great. I don't think there are any bad roads through the mountains.

Nice trip a lot of good pics. Man that bridge in Greenville is something to see. It is beautiful.

Saw this heading out of town:


I love that area. There is a store there behind the General Lee and Roscoe's cruiser. If you like "Southern" stuff, you need to go inside. Every kind of Confederate toys you could imagine are in there!!

Thanks for the pics and report! I love riding the Ozarks. We're heading there in a week or so. Pig Trail is a good dealership - nice people. Eureka Springs is always a fun time. Like you said - very bike friendly.

Good ride report supahflid . . . too bad I was off riding in middle Tennessee with Cottontop and couldn't hook up with you on this trip. I shoulda reminded you to take Highway 23 to Mt Judea just south of Jasper. That's where the "Little Dragon" is that we rode last time up that way and I'm sure MJG would have loved dragging pegs on those curves.

Got back Monday evening , had a fantastic ride ,, until we got back to where we started from . Planning on going back in the fall , probably before that though .

Dang! I wish you had been there too to show us the way! We went right through Jasper too! You ought to do a rr on your trip!
