Where in Mid-Mo are you? I am in Columbia. There is a group that has a lot of rides, if you want organised, called central missouri riders. THey are a nice goup of people. Google it and you will find it.

I live down at the Lake of the Ozarks, there are lots of good roads in the Central part of the state. Hwy 5 is a pretty good ride, lots of restaurants and watering holes. Hwy 7 is another, although in places it's getting pretty rough. Hwy 17 from Hwy 54 in Eugene to Ft Leonard Wood is a good ride. Best way I found to find good rides is to get a highway map and look at the different roads and areas. Lots of good roads around the Salem/Steelville area. Johnson Shutin's is a pretty area to ride in, also.

It really depends on which part of mid-state you live in, or would like to ride in. Give us a closer area and I'm sure you'll get lots of suggestions.

Lake of the Ozarks is pretty nice...some of the runs around Branson are worth the trip. Cool little towns in the Mts.
