102 Springfield The Birthplace Of Route 66

Once again, Route 66 is the topic, and why not!? In the last 3 weeks we've experienced this legendary highway personally and we HAVE to share it with you, our friends.
In this episode, we dabble a little into the history of route 66, and dive head first into our first experience of the 9th annual Birth of Route 66 Festival, in Springfield Missouri.
A festival that is growing with every passing year, with approximately 70,000 people in attendance and over 600 classic cars and motorcycles to view, never ceases to amaze. Live band performances and an endless array of foodtrucks and other vendors make for an event that you'll never want to end. Sadly, its only once a year and lasts two short days.

STICK AROUND until the end of this episode for a sneak peek of a new podcast called, The Ride Guys.

Listen, as your hosts, Jason and Steve, uncover little known details of the amusement park world.
From Disneyland's groundbreaking rail technology on The Matterhorn Bobsled, to how it has influenced modern rides that we see today.
Or discover an episode on the history of the rollercoaster mecca, Cedar Point, and learn why this destination has lasted more than 150 yrs.
You could even take a test, to find out what level of rollercoaster enthusiast you are. Find out whether you're a Mama's boy or a full blown giga coaster worshiper that would sell your own mother for tickets to ride.
..... And a whole lot more!
