I have a route for Tunnel Vision, but do you have any loops around Coler or Slaughter Pen? A link to a good loop that you have ridden?

Coler is enduro so a paved climb and multiple cool descents. Slaughter pen "castle" area is the same but not a paved ascent. the other slaughter pen stuff is along one valley to just cruise parallel lines.

Agreed. There's not much to really "think" about with regards to Slaughter Pen or Coler. Especially if you're there on an e-bike. Figure out which lines are within your comfort zone and lap them a few times.

Actually, I called around and the shops are only renting out ebikes. It was a little disappointing, so I am bringing my old hardtail. I don't do big jumps and just like to do long rides.

Based upon that, slaughter pen with connectors Tristan and black apple can be made into a cool loop from downtown that would be more to your liking. It’s a fun ride. I’ll find my last day there. That’s what I did then.

Awesome, if you could share the track, that would be greatly appreciated. We are staying at the Compton, so we are right in the middle of downtown.

Here it is. This is a bare bones, there are plenty of places to circle back or do excursions and return to this route to hit the stuff I mentioned. Make sure to hit Masterpiece. Its a special bit of Bentonville history. Its on the route at 9.69 miles

Many thanks!
I will report once I get back. Thank you so much for your help! The start is about a half mile from my Hotel and I see the Oz Castle near there and I can divert to this.
