It is the only Route 66 guide that in a single volume has: � Easy to follow turn by turn directions going both east and west. � A suggested primary route and interesting alternate routes. � Hundreds of color photos. � Historical information about how Route 66 was created and how it changed over the years. � Current and historical information on each town along the route. � How to find all the traditional and new Route 66 attractions. � Recommended rowdy bars and cool restaurants. � A listing of Route 66 museums. � A listing of classic Route 66 motels. � A listing of casinos along Route 66. � A listing of all campgrounds or near route 66. � A listing of all the motorcycle shops along route 66 and surrounding towns. � Information on state motorcycle helmet laws. The Motorcycle Party Guide to Route 66 is more than just a directional guide and listing of Route 66 sites. This book is about how to explore the best of what Route 66 has to offer and about having as much fun as possible during that exploration. The book includes Sam’s personal experiences in visiting traditional sites as well as his recommendations regarding the sites worth seeing, the sites worth skipping, the bars and restaurants worth visiting and the motels that offer the best Route 66 experience. He gives an honest, rather than romanticized, description of what Route 66 explorers will find today, as well as information on traditional Route 66 icons that have disappeared. He also chronicles many of his Route 66 adventures, like when he was in Joplin, Missouri, on the morning of the 2011 tornado that destroyed several square miles of homes and businesses. There also was the time he accidentally locked himself out of his hotel room in St. Louis dressed only in his birthday suit. If you want to explore Route 66 and party down at the best bars, restaurants and biker joints along the way, this is the book for you. Buy it now, fire up your two-wheeler (or hop in your car) and hit the road today.
