Clydesdale rode part of Stage 1 with the "Route of Champions" Sunday, and gives his thoughts about the race and spectators: All in all I would have to say that it is a great course for viewing the race and really getting to experience professional riding at its best. The out and back design allow multiple opportunities to see them as well as the great finishing circuit. It could not have a better venue to see the fireworks. By the way if you are looking for a place to watch for crashes then the last left hander completing the circuit is your spot. It will be fast and is on a slight downhill with an outward slope to it. They referred to it at the volunteer meeting as "Hay Bale Corner". The winning move will have to clear this corner fast on the last lap as it is only 400-500 meters to the finish from there. Podium Cafe looks to have more coverage of the Tour of MO as it develops.
