If I go, my route will be from Shreveport, LA to Fayeteville, AR, Kansas City, MO, Omaha, NE, Sioux Falls, SD and in to Sturgis. Little over 1250 miles one-way. Highway 71 out of Shreveport is the primary route through Arkansas. Very scenicthrough Arkansasbut two lane road until you hit Ft. Smith and then Interstate 540 which is a mixture of 4and two lane into Kansas City. Wanted to take some scenic blue roads and this seems a good option over all Interstate riding.
