I find Telegraph crossing the Meramec to be pretty reasonable. I find crossing 270/255 on any major road to be far more fretful than crossing the river.

Some of the most beautiful riding this side of the Ozarks is just South of town. There's a couple of ways to get down there that would be relatively safe, Thu, 19 Nov 2009 21:23:50 GMT melcurls http://groups.yahoo.com/group/stlbikefed/message/11133 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/stlbikefed/message/11133 There's an express bus that goes from Arnold to StL in the morning, and from StL to Arnold in the evening, but unfortunately not the other way around.

You should venture south of Arnold at some point, Harold. There is beautiful country down there, and the ride is worth it.

FWIW, I've found that using google maps' directions with "by walking" is a good place to start for cycling-friendly routes.

I'm afraid that my 4+ years of bike commuting will be coming to an end, but Wed, 18 Nov 2009 19:31:28 GMT Harold Karabell http://groups.yahoo.com/group/stlbikefed/message/11127 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/stlbikefed/message/11127 I'm in favor of such a project!
