See the "day trip" post I did on this sub-forum two months ago, starting in Eureka Springs and including, among other great roads, state road 123. It is a don't miss road. Also, get the motorcycle road trips from Harrison's Chamber of commerce. Finally, google "motorcycle day trips" and you'll find some great rides posted by those familiar with the roads less traveled. You'll also want to include a trip to Mt. Magazine, taking 309 south to the top of the mountain. Enjoy!

The Talimena Scenic Byway is a great ride. Head West from Mena and enjoy the curves and elevation changes.
