    Any one from Ohio or Indy have any suggestions on The Lincoln Highway?

    Cool pics! I love finding and exploring old road alignments!

    I grew up right beside US 67 aka "The Broadway of America",but it was way past the road's prime. I-30 replaced it as the main road from Dallas to St. Louis. There's still some pretty cool monuments from the past along the route though!

    It looks like Power Tour 2014 route could run The Lincoln Highway. Even if it does not, a few of us are going to run it in Ohio, Indiana.

    Please post up sections of the road that are a must see while we are in the area. What would be cool stops along the way.

    Thanks,

    Lars

    Thanks George
    The sign is posted at both ends of the bridge commemorating the 75 anniversary of the highway
    This was located about 30 miles west of Clinton

    Great Pictures Sean!! Is the L sign an actual marker and is this on a bridge? I assume this is eastern Iowa?? Avalanche looks great, really like the wheels!!

    I can't answer for Ed, but I was just agreeing with your statement...in a not so subtle sort of way
