Took my 04 America to Eureka Springs Arkansas for the St.Patrick's day parade and celebration and joined a sea of Harleys and people in green at the Pied Piper Pub.





Returned home via Beaver Arkansas and the historic "Little Golden Gate" single lane suspension bridge.




There are lots of two lane twisty country roads here in Northwest Arkansas and lots of bikers out on them on nice weekends, but the nearest Triumph dealer is 150 miles north in Missouri.

Eureka Springs is beautiful this time of year. Looks like a great view.

Well I got to ride today for the first time. We've had temps from 20C to 28C for 10 days straight. The snow just disappeared. Picked up the bike, installed a new battery under warranty....(mine died after just 2 summers) and she fired right up. Only problem was a burnt taillight. Put 50km on her and all is well......YIPPEE. This is a first for us...getting to ride in March.

Now if the road cleaning crews could start (side roads are slippery with sand) and the snow just stop for the rest of the summer.....
