I, myself, have been a Biker on the top side of 50 years. It is enlightening to see that the businesses and tourism bureaus are finally recognizing that bikers, or motorcycle enthusiasts, are not the criminal types that many fear, but caring and educated individuals who love their country, ride proud and strive to uphold many of the freedoms that our founding fathers intended. Thank you Arkansas for opening your minds and your trails for myself and many others to enjoy! Perhaps other governments will follow your footprint when they realize that those who ride, spend and support the local economies who support us! Those bikes and the gear are not cheap, neither are the costs of traveling. There is money there to be discovered, not to mention the great benefits of true friendship and respect of the riders.
