Sounds like a good ride. Riding on the mountains takes lower speeds using lower gears in most cases. That is you were taking in the senenery.

My wife and I have ridden that area 3 or 4 times and have always had a good time. Eureka Springs is a biker friendly area.
We got better mileage also.

Sure right about the great folks. We were on 14 going east to home and was getting low on Fuel stop at a house to ask how far it was to the next gas station as we were at a t road and there was a town about 5 miles on the other road lady mowing told me 1.2 miles up the road but if I need some she had spare and if we needed to get out of the sun for a while she had a shade tree we could get under. told here if it was 1 mile I had enough to get there and thanked her for the offer. Dang think took 5.7 gallons paid the highest price for gas there but was worth every penny
