SATURDAY, May 14th - Liberty Square to Kearney - Heart #155 - 9:00 AM Start

 As a bonus ride I offer a ride from the square in Liberty (Public parking in lots by the courthouse - Kansas & Missouri). to Kearney where my final Parade of Hearts heart can be found.


I have it on good authority that Fox & Fire BBQ is da bomb so I thought we could try that for lunch.  They open at 11 and I hear there will be a line and they sell out and they are pricy so be prepared for that.

The trip there is 13.5 miles, the return is about 15 miles = 28.5 total miles.  I scouted and modified an earlier map.  The one you see here is my most recent and probable route.  We are on Hwy 69 for a short distance.  There is a wide an smooth shoulder in that segment.



Hope you can make it.

PS - the route this time is a Garmin Connect route.  You may not be able to open that link unless you have that app installed.  I thought it looked interesting as I drove it.

Maybe Friday  - Leave from the Liberty Square  (if we can find parking) for Kearney via this route. Maybe breakfast at D'Creamery  Maybe beer and or lunch at 3Halves Brewery.  The entire ride is about 32 miles - 14 to Kearney.
