I have taken this ride in 2 parts (Im from Bloomington). its a great little piece of americana.When you cross the river into peoria, instead of taking Galena Rd(29), take Grandview Drive to Prospect, then North to Forest park Drive then back to Galena Dr(29). Its a 15 minute detour that you will be very happy you took, nice vistas, huge elevation change.
