Road Scenery: 
|
There
is a lot of history along this route if you have
time to look. Old farmsteads, flint rock fences, creeks,
woodlands and prairie. In the early morning and late evening
you have to keep a sharp eye out for deer, coons, opossums
and other small critters. It is worth the ride to and
from to see this road.

Road Quality: 
|
|
It
is a sport bike's dream without the up-keep. No major
potholes or obstructions but watch for the occasional patch
or chip & seal. The road has a ton of curves and the
bumps we call "hills" in Kansas. It is an old road that
pretty much follows the contour of the land.

is a station at either end of the road in Alma and Alta
