You are right about the good riding here. I ride NW and N Central AR quite a bit. But I also enjoy riding CO, TN, NC, MO, GA etc. SE Oklahoma is nice too. Except for AR, getting to the great riding areas takes some time. I went to Southern LA and TX last Spring and it was an interesting trip, just not many twisties and more traffic than I like. Alligator rode kill...now that was a first!
