Default Talimena Ride

Not as lush in years past when I rode, but here are a few pics.
Better than yard-work !
Notice a few bugs along the way on windshield/faring and helmet...

I'll be making routine trips there this summer with my wife on the back. We only live 45 minutes away from Talimena. It'll be pretty in the fall.

Talimena Skyway, in Oklahoma near the Arkansas border. A group of us will be riding there in September and that ride is on the list....

Try the Moon Tower Bar & Grill in Hochatown when you're in the area. Chef won an episode of Chopped on the Food Channel. Food there is better than the ride and the Talemena Skyway is a great ride.

I have been looking at all the posts for routes and roads, and adding to the list. By the time I head out I should have a pretty good list, and then add to it as the journey progresses.
