Written directions:
Since it is a loop, you can obviously start out in either Jefferson City or Sedalia yet the description that follows chooses to start in Sedalia the way I took the route. We started in Sedalia, heading east on Hwy 50. Then turn north on Route 5. Go about 8 or 9 miles north on Route 5 to state Route J where you want to take a right (head east). Go through Bunceton, MO (there's a new little sandwich shop in town). Stay on J through Prairie Home, MO. Look for Route 87. Head south on Route 87 to about Jamestown, MO where you need to switch to Route 179 heading east. Take 179 through Jamestown on your way to Jefferson City. When you get to Jefferson City (we stopped there and had lunch) get on Route C heading west to and through the town of Russellville, MO. Take Route C into Route 52 (heading west) and into Versailles, MO. Continue heading west from Versailles on Route 52, through Stover, MO. A few miles west of Stover is Route 135 (look for the Touch of Dutch Restaurant, if your there on a Thursday or Friday, stop for supper!!! One of the best buffets in MO). Take Route 135 north just under 5 miles to Route M where you want to take a left (head west). Continue on Route M till Bahner, MO where you want to split off to the left and take Route V (heading west). Go about 4 miles and then take a right (head north) on to Route U all the way back up to Sedalia. This was a great half day ride!.
