Details of St. Louis circuit to open the Tour of Missouri
Saint Louis Post-Dispatch
This year’s Tour of Missouri opens with a circuit race in St. Louis on Labor Day, and the details of the route have just been released.
The stage, a 7-lap circuit of 10.2 miles, will start and finish at Seventh & Market and will head south on Broadway toward the brewery. After a loop around the brewery, the route will come back on Boardway to Russell and go west on Russell to Mississippi. The circuit then heads north on Mississippi with a detour around Lafayette Square en route to Chouteau, east on Chouteau to Tucker, and north on Tucker back to Market and the finishing line.
With the exception of the small climb on Russell, the route is flat and will be fast.
