OK I am looking for some suggestions. 3 of us have taken 4 days off and are going to ride with no real destination in mind. We are leaving North Houston area and I am looking for suggestions.
We will ride around 500 mile give or take each day.
One thought I have is riding towards Gulf Shores VIA the Creole trail and then north through Alabama to north Arkansas and finally back through north Texas and home.

Any other suggestions or good rides? I am kind of thinking the Ozarks?
Thanks in advance.

 

Went out to Big Bend then up thru mts to NM, when I lived in Lake Charles. My first bike in the real mountains trip. 600 mile day should get you close.... Back across the plains was a long ride tho.

AR and some east OK cold easily use up a lot of your time, too

 

Go north, too hot staying south. Just spent some time in the Ozarks, another biker heaven,

 

Ozarks are always good - SE Oklahoma, Arkansas. But, I love Big Bend, Alpine, Marfa, Ft. Davis, the Davis Mountains and riding across Guadalupe Pass and into New Mexico. Can't go wrong there.

Head up and over into Arkansas, Kentucky, Tennessee.

 

OK, We decided on "The Pig Trail" in Arkansas, then ride some more of the area. Any advice on must ride roads? We are thinking of going south east from there and eventually cross back into Texas from Lousianna. Also any advise on places to stay in Arkansas? I was thinking of a hotel in Ozark the first night but open to other suggestions. Not fancybut clean is nice.

 

a lot of AR is dry counties if that is an issue.

you see the Arkansas bucket list thread? lot of good stuff there

look at going up into OK on 271 or 259. Find ok 1 or the talimena. great drive over into Mena area

 

Yup, go North young man, go North. Slow down, enjoy the ride, forget about getting anywhere. Arkansas has all you need.

 

Do the Three Sisters ride if you get to hot jump in one of the rivers. This is a great 3 day getaway.
