Has anyone ridden any of the routes around Harrison, Arkansas down in the Ozarks?

The tourist/chamber of commerce groups down there are pushing that area for riding. Based out of Harrison they laid out maps that have day trips around rural Arkansas, some go up into Missouri. But all the routes start/end in Harrison. Each route they show has # of curves, # miles, and rough amount of time it takes to complete the route. They also list some tourist attractions, lunch stops, etc that are alone each of the various routes.
NONE of the routes are like the DRAGON which is just a wild series of curves on one stretch of road. But the "Riding Guide of the Ozarks" that they mail out seems to imply the connection to the Dragon simply because it lists the number of turns on each of the routes.
The guide lists 8 different routes, each is roughly a 1/2 day do 2/3rds of a day ride, leaving time to get some food and visit some scenic views along the way. Mostly it looks like nice rural routes on 2 lane state and county roads through little touristy towns that are scattered through the Ozarks. Clearly the goal is to get people to base at Harrison and do a series of day rides.
Anyone?
