Subject: best segment for a one day ride
I'll be driving from K.C. to St. Louis next month. I'll have one full day to ride on the trail. Where I begin is open, however, it will need to be a round trip ride of about 60-80 miles. I'm looking for a segment of the trail that travels through less developed areas--preferably along the Missouri River. I would appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks

>>>>> That's easy! Rocheport!
Rocheport to Hartsburg is 50 miles round trip, or ride on to North Jefferson for a 70 mile round trip.
Trail access at Rocheport is about 2 miles north of I-70. Many people feel the area around Rocheport is some of the most scenic of the trail.
