5.0 out of 5 stars
An excellent guide book to Missouri's bike trails,
By A Customer
This review is from: Biking Missouri's Rail-Trails: Where to Go, What to Expect, How to Get There (Biking Rail-Trails) (Paperback)
An "indispensable book for bikers, hikers, walkers, joggers and families who want to enjoy Missouri's trails." Shawn E. Richardson's book Biking Missouri's Rail-Trails follows an identical format to Shawn E. Richardson's other two books Biking Ohio's Rail-Trails and Biking Wisconsin's Rail-Trails. This colorful paperback book includes detailed maps, photos, and a description to each trail. Trail lengths range from 1 mile to 235 miles and include information about trail surface (smooth crushed limestone, asphalt), trail use (biking, roller blading, horses, wheelchair, hiking), parking, and points of interest. Shawn E. Richardson provides informaion about the Missouri Department of Natural Resources and their involvement with Missouri's Rail-Trails. If you live in Missouri, or plan to visit Missouri, this book is a must for any cyclist!

This review is from: Biking Missouri's Rail-Trails: Where to Go, What to Expect, How to Get There (Biking Rail-Trails) (Paperback)
The book itself is fine, but many of the trails are quite short and wouldn't necessarily be worth the drive, if you're not already there, making the book less useful than I was hoping for.
