Surfing the net for interesting roads and things to see in Arkansas I came across a site dedicated to bridges; www.Bridgehunter.com. This wood decked, cable suspension bridge just a few hours from the house sounded like an excellent excuse for a ride on the Goldwing so off we went.
It is a 554 foot cable suspension bridge over the White River (Table Rock Reservoir) on AR 187 at Beaver, northwest of Eureka Springs. It is a one-lane bridge with a 10 ton weight limit built in 1949 by the Pioneer Construction Co. of Malvern, Arkansas.
A great excuse for a ride if you live close or a good excuse for a detour if you're passing through. Highway 187 makes a loop off of 62 and will bring you right back. A nice tree lined and twisty road we found enjoyable. Arkansas tourism is amazing and we always find somewhere new to ride the motorcycle or something new to see.
