As a resident of Bella Vista who can hop on Tunnel Vision from my house, I thank you for this fabulous video. Last year my husband and I rode the 25-mile Tunnel Vision Trail in honor of our 25th wedding anniversary. We had planned to ride it in 1-day but the 90 degree weather forced us to take it in 2 days...was still a great time. Hope to see you on the trail.

@Lee Ryder Funny you say Sarah handles jumps better than Brian. Looks to me like she gets more height and length so she lands smoother and she's balanced for the next jump. Based on what my eyes & ears are telling me, Brian (almost) always comes up short. You've got to send it with confidence Brian. 👍

If you venture 30-45 minutes north into MO you can also ride at the High Ground Bike Preserve in Neosho, I'm sure it would mean the world to them to have that kind of exposure. They're a great example of the smaller towns in this area taking the example set by Bentonville and realizing that through concerted and passionate effort, any town can build great trails that are a catalyst for economic growth.
