Day 6
304 miles
This is the Lake at Heber Springs, we stayed on the river below it, The Little Red River.
It was foggy when we awoke and got going. No continental breakfast, instead we ate at the convenience store down the road. Talking to the clerk, discovered she was headed to Joplin this weekend to volunteer.
Was a cool morning, no rain as Keith did not polish his bike the night before. Riding the twisties down in Arkansas seems familiar to me, and we get good at it after a while in the twistie zone.
We crossed Bull Shoals lake on the Peel Ferry, about an 18 minute ride across the lake.
The sign said to remain in your vehicle, so we sat on our bikes. Entered Missouri a few miles up the road from the ferry, stopped for gas and food in Forsythe. Then the last leg of the journey up to Springfield and over to Joplin. Great to be home again, I think I'll stay a while. Total miles for the trip was 1765, about ready for a new back tire. Enjoyed the time with my buddy Keith.
