•Element - Looks like getting there will be half the fun! Anybody want to meet in northern AR or Branson and ride down?

•wengland - Y'all are killing me - both Byway Boogie and BS Rally are on weekends with my son. Going to just have to buy him a helmet and make him Go Ride, instead of swapping with his mom!

" Mount Magazine State Park is the highest point in the state of Arkansas and one of the highest points between the Alleghenies and the Rockies!

Wow! Paris, Arkansas! Actually our favorite little town compared to Scranton, Clarksville etc. Just a few minutes from where we were living. We're a little too far West now but it looks like a Blast! That road over to Magazine is great! ENJOY!

Just wanted to share this ride was great. 30 sport touring riders from states as far away as North Carolina, rode in groups of 5 or so, with various routes thru the twisties of north central Arkansas. Followed by banquet and prizes, then home thru more great roads, and fantastic weather. Doesn't get better than that!
