Road Scenery:

I
doubt you will find better scenery anywhere in Missouri.
It's especially great once you get south of Salem and especially
in the fall after the leaves change.

Road Quality: 
|
|
Lots
of twists and turns, and ups and downs. None are tight enough
to scare a novice, but there's plenty of grin factor. Well
paved and traffic is light!

I rode most of this route yesterday, entering the route southbound at Owensville. There were enough turns and twists to keep an aggressive rider pleased, but nothing was so challenging that a careful novice would have problems. There are plenty of opportunities to stop and stretch along the way as well as fueling stops ever 20-30 miles (or less). The scenery was great; it is one of the finest motorcycling roads in the area.
