Eureka Springs Eats

-

Ermilio’s - Italian, small home that is converted to a restaurant, very good. Since it is small, a large group could be a problem and the last I checked, they do not take reservations.

http://www.ermilios.com/

-

Gaskin Cabin Steakhouse - known for their prime rib - the cabin was built around 1855

http://www.gaskinscabin.com/

-

Rocking Pig Saloon, a biker bar with a wood fired pizza oven - love their chicken fried Filet Mignon

http://www.rockinpigsaloon.com/menu.php

-

Mud Street Cafe - known for homemade breakfast pastries - their full breakfast is good

https://mudstreetcafe.com/

-

Myrtle Mae’s - Local ground grits from the War Eagle Mill, good breakfast, lunch is ok

https://myrtiemaes.com/

-

Filling station - Breakfast Buffet, quick in and out - not bad, use to be better. Was sold 2 years ago and they still don’t have it worked out yet but it is still a local favorite and it is right up the street from the Regency on Van Buren.

Food On the Road

-

Low Gap Cafe - roads to and from very interesting, CIA trained, Nick came for a visit and stayed

http://www.lowgapcafe.com/about.html

-

Mather Lodge - Petit Jean State Park - views are breathtaking and the meals are pretty good, large dinning room able to accept large groups with ease.

-

Ozark - Rivertown BBQ - their BBQ could be served in Texas, don’t need to say anything else

http://rivertownebbq.com/

-

Oark & Oark General Store - built in 1890 - known for their burgers and pies - During Bikes Blues & BBQ rally, the wait can be as much as 4 hours to get in. The road to and from is what it is all about. Hwy 215 south out of Oark eats a number of bikes every year.

-

Jasper - Ozark Cafe - decent place to eat

-

Jasper - 7 miles south on Hwy 7 - the Cliff House Inn - overlooking the Arkansas Grand Canyon, decent meals, love their red beans and corn bread - this is another place during BB&B that has a long wait to get in.

-

Huntsville Ark. - Granny's Kitchen - local biker favorite -

-

Points of interest -

Historic “Beaver Bridge” - single lane wood suspension bridge over Table Rock Lake

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beaver_Bridge_(Arkansas)

-

War Eagle Mill - working mill with lots to sell

-

Kingston, Arkansas -Grandpa’s Flea Mkt. - junction Hwy 21 & 74 - road in and out are interesting - 3 big buildings full of stuff.

-

Peel Ferry - only operating ferry in Arkansas - the town of Peel was hit with a tornado a few weeks back, it might be good to check to see if the ferry is operational.

-

Roaring River State Park, Mo. - helmet required state - nice ride to and from.

-

Pig Trail scenic byway - it was a little the worse for wear in September but it is still a good ride

I had a wonderful time last year. The rides were fun, the food was good, this year I want to travel to other parts of the USA.

[jeyoung]

If all goes well the Wife and I will be there. Living in Mena, AR most of the time and that will be a good ride.

Don't ask me where my mind went to ........ Oh, well. Always good to travel with a buddy.

[TonkaDriver]

29 days till I leave. I am hoping to meet new riding buddies along the way and I already know there will be new friends once I get there. I told a friend of mine at work that I was going and he said it's the greatest place. Beautiful mountains, good food and friendly people. My kind of place.

Two weeks from tomorrow is launch day and I am about ready. I installed the 3 pocket fairing pouch and bought an AirHawk seat cushion. My Redline 3 hole oil change kit arrived today and will be done on Sunday. I will also be going thru the 20,000 mile service checklist. A coworker and riding partner is going as far as Socorro, NM the first day. It is shaping up to be a great trip.

Getting close so here's what I'm planning ride wise -feel free to join us or do your own thing.

As I've got to have some maintenance done on new bike I'll be heading over to Rogers and Pig Trail harley Monday morning. Also that way is the Pea Ridge National Battlefield, Crystal bridges museum and the Walmart Museum. Will be stopping at an old Grist Mill on way back

Tuesday I'm off to the Oark General store via Pig Trail then into Clarksville for some great BBQ

Wednesday headed south again for the Arkansas Grand Canyon and to Low Gap for lunch or dinner at the Low Gap cafe

Thursday -I have no idea -Yet

[wehrme]

I'm in, short of a monsoon, dust storm or locust plague. It is MAY you know.

I just need a ride. Been to ES many times and always enjoyed it there.

Staying 20-22nd.

See you folks there.

[TonkaDriver]

T Minus 48 Hours.

​Kurt

[JohnnyB]

Should be in Sunday early afternoon

[wehrme]

Shamless 'bump'.

Folks, there's still time to attend. Best riding roads in the country. It would be nice if a few more people attend.

I hate to keep asking the same people for a beer.

[TonkaDriver]

Headed out in an hour. Quick adjustment at the chiropractor on the way. He is taking me a half hour before opening. Going to be a great day.

Kurt

[wehrme]

Should be there by check-in time on Monday.
