Fenton

Starting point with good places for meeting-up (a couple of shoppong centers at the 141 / 30 instesection). First part of the trip is straight & not all that interesting.

House Springs

Turn off 30 onto MM. MM has a few warm-up curves, but nothing serious.

Turn onto 21

21 is slab for awhile. Boring, but you need to ride it to get to the good stuff. You can really open it up through there, but there are rumors of it being a cop haven. Personally, I haven't seen any on this stretch of 21, but the northern parts may be worse.

OFF THE SLAB!

Things get a little better. A few sweepers, but you can maintain full speed through them. Heavy traffic, IMO.

De Soto

Redneck heaven. :) Turn onto H. There is a Pizza Hut & gas station at the intersection if anyone needs a break (or food). Get ready for the fun riding! Mostly sweepers, but many of them with some striaghts in-between.

Richwoods

Not much here. be careful for mud/dried clumps of dirt on the roads. Lots of 4x4ers in the area. After a few strights, thingsd get REAL twisty and you have to be careful. Few cars, but the ones you see may be on your side fo the road. Take care!

Shawn Hornbeck was abducted from this remote little town.

BFE - turn here!

You just got a taste of a road that is like a fine wine. Get ready to drink more like it's coming through a fire hose!

Meremec State Park

Sullivan

Gas station here.

Sullivan Outskirts

Lull in trip - many sweepers & hills, but you can take most at full speed.

Beaufort

More sweepers, this is the resting portion of the trip. Fun, but not technical at all.

Ben Ownly was abducted from this remote little town.

BFE

Just a little turn off.

Washington

Turn at the light. Missouri river crossing ahead. gas stations here.

BFE

Turn onto 94 and get ready for more technical riding. Be aware of the season, there are many wineries along this route which can mean drunk drivers. Take care here too!

Defiance

BIKER BAR! Please stop here, but don't overinduldge. The trip is almost over.

Weldon Springs

Break-up here. Ride is complete!
