    It's been MANY years since I've ridden the trails in Northwest Arkansas and since then they've had a mountain bike trail building BOOM. It started in Bentonville and now the entire region is dedicating resources to creating awesome experiences for mountain bikers.

    That's it, right there. Exactly what I always *want* to do for every location I ride/film... spend more than two days there! This looks like it's going to be a fun one. When Beth and I went, we really enjoyed the trails a bit north in Eureka Springs and the Passion Play area. Worth the hour drive, for sure.
