Sunday Maps:
Your last day of Fandango is relatively the flattest, though there is still roughly 2000 ft of elevation gain on the long route. On this day we cross state lines into Arkansas and eventually end up in Siloam Springs. After that we end up back in Oklahoma, where the scenery changes from trees and rivers to open plain. If you didn’t know it, at times you almost feel like you’re in Western Oklahoma as you ride past open plains, farmland, and grazing cattle. Joy even spotted longhorn cattle, bringing back memories of Freewheel 2012!
Make sure to check out the link above to our photo gallery, which has some pictures of the great facilities that Arrowhead float camp has to offer during our stay. Remember that your ride registration covers a tent camping spot, as well as access to showers and bathrooms. We have also reserved the lodge with deck overlooking the river, where we will be serving breakfast and dinner on Saturday.
So, what are you waiting for!? Register now and join us for a great weekend away on the Illinois River with bicycles, friends, food, and fun!
