As posted, Heart of America Z Car Club is taking a cruize to Ft. Scott, Ks. this Sunday, May 20.
The route down will be 2 lane black top state and county roads the entire way. The route will cover about 100 miles and will take about 2 hours.
We will depart the QuikTrip at Blue Ridge and Holmes (13100 Holmes) at 11 am so be there and be ready to pull out at 11 with a full tank of gas and an empty bladder. You will be provided with turn by turn directions. On this route, with the possible exception of Drexel, MO., there will be no gas stations, convenience stores, etc. to take a "pause for the cause". If you need to bail out for any reason, 3 "Bail out" options are given which will take you over to US 69.
Once we arrive in Ft. Scott you're on your own to tour the Fort (free admission), check out the old buildings downtown, or head directly to our refreshment destination..Sharkys Pub & Grub.
Return to KC is on your own. It's an easy drive up US 69 to KC...4 lanes and 75 mph speed limit.
BTW, there is a slight (30%) chance of storms Sunday...not enough to stop us.
