Slinging In The Ozarks Brings Three-Wheel Riders To Eureka Springs

You round a curve on Highway 23 and there they are, three-wheeled Slingshots lined up nose to tail, chrome catching the sunset over the Ozark hills. That’s the scene waiting for you at Slinging in the Ozarks.

Meet the Slingshot

It’s an open-air, three-wheeled machine that looks like it escaped a sci-fi movie and sounds even better in person. That’s what you’ll be surrounded by all weekend at this Midwest 3 Wheel Roundup gathering, four days built around the road and everyone else obsessed with it.

Curvy Roads and Loud Pipes

You’ll get group rides through some of the curviest roads the Ozarks have to offer, along with an evening social to swap stories about the trip in. If your Slingshot’s sound system is your pride and joy, sign up for the sound competition, split into featherweight through heavyweight classes. Registration opens September 1.

Where You’ll Crash

The Best Western Inn of the Ozark, 207 W. Van Buren, serves as the host hotel. If it books up before you grab a room, Eureka Springs has plenty of backup beds close by, including the 1886 Crescent Hotel & Spa, Basin Park Hotel, New Orleans Hotel, Bavarian Inn Lodge, and The Wanderoo Lodge.

Growing Every Year

Last year’s ride pulled in 85 Slingshots from across the country. On the event’s Facebook page, organizers put it simply: they want to “make it bigger” this time around. You’ll find a laid-back, rider-run weekend here rather than a corporate car show.

You’ll also find vendor booths from Zarate Steel Works, Slin Raks, and Custom Kandy LED, plus Tattoo Your Ryde on-site for custom airbrushing, so bring cash if you’re in the mood to trick out your ride while you’re there.
