Tony, I think it's your route that 2WheelNut, GFLflyer and I rode last fall. It was posted on the Glenwood thread last year. Well we rode most of it anyhow, and really enjoyed ourselves. Wow, I just don't remember that section Robertson Creek as being difficult (Even Jarrett could do it ) If 2WN and GFL would like to chime in here on their memories? It's the area where GFL later said, I kept wondering what Mac was looking back at me for and then I looked down and said, "TREE!" There were a couple of smaller trees that had fallen over the road but was very passable.
Anyhow, towards the start we cut off of Owley Rd. onto Crystal Park Rd instead of continuing on. I like going over the mountain there and the pavilion on the back side was a nice place for a prostrate break. We took that over to 27 north and rejoined at Alexander Rd.
Like I mentioned before, we rerouted down 375 from 270 but joined back on where Polk Co. 70 turns south. This was the only mildly difficult part of the route in my mind because of a rocky downhill section there. It wasn't hard per-say, just slower going. I think it would be trickier running the other way with the fear you might lose momentum and stall or something.
Once we got on 8 we just rode into Mena because it was a perfect time for lunch. After Mena is a lot of fun too all the way to the state park and beyond. Good stuff! We really enjoyed your efforts.
