You . . . need to educate the people of Missouri that Bicycles Belong. I recently did a trip down the Mississippi River with Womantours. All 22 of us agreed that the drivers in Missouri were the rudest. We were yelled at, had things thrown at us, and were crowded over on many occasions. I also have done the Southern Tour across the United States (San Diego to St. Augustine), and I would still "award" Missouri the worst place to cycle award.Any chance we can turn things around and make Missouri a great place to bicycle?
