09-ToM-Stage-1-MapStage 1 – St. Louis, circuit race, 75 miles (120.7 km)

A new kickoff point for the third Tour of Missouri will be a showcase of St. Louis on Labor Day Weekend. While the terrain is relatively easy, the course is fast and technical, which will make things interesting from the start. Everyone will have fresh legs and a shot at the first yellow jersey of the tour, making this opening day an exciting one.

09-ToM-Stage-2-MapStage 2 – Ste. Genevieve to Cape Girardeau, 112.4 miles (180.9 km)

This new territory for the Tour of Missouri will offer the racers their first taste of state’s rolling hills and scenic countryside. Some early KOM hills and a technical finish on Cape’s riverfront should provide a challenge for the day’s winner.
A great viewing day awaits fans as well. The proximity of I-55 makes it easy to watch the start, catch the sprint in Perryville, and still make the finish with time to spare.

09-ToM-Stage-3-MapStage 3 –Farmington to Rolla, 114.3 mi. (183.9 km)
Perhaps the most challenging stage in the three-year history of Tour of Missouri awaits the riders during this stage. The start in Farmington’s quaint downtown belies the challenges to come in the Ozark Mountains. With over 6,000 feet of total climbing on hill after hill, this day will begin to shape the race for the overall champion. The familiar finish in Rolla could again see a solo winner as it did in 2008 with Michael Barry.

09-ToM-Stage-4-MapStage Four – St. James to Jefferson City, 109.2 mi. (175.7 mi.)
The only repeat stage from 2008, the challenging Stage Four is back to test the best. It’s gently rolling start hides the sting that awaits the riders on Jefferson City’s famously-challenging finish circuits. Look for the world’s top sprinters to get humbled by the “capitol wall”, a steep 300-meter climb, to the finish line adjacent to the states Capitol.

09-ToM-Stage-5-MapStage Five – Sedalia, Time Trial, 19 mi. (30.5 km)
A time trial for the purists awaits in Sedalia. This is what time trialing is all about, flat, fast, and wide open. A collection of the best time trialists in the world go full throttle from start to finish on the Missouri State Fair grounds in Sedalia. (Or bring your bike and cruise the Katy Trail, which offers three great viewing points of the course in a five-mile stretch.)

09-ToM-Stage-6-MapStage Six – Chillicothe to St. Joseph, 110.3 mi. (177.4 km)
Deceptive is the best way to describe this new stage. On paper this may seem like a flat, leisurely ride through the country, but beware of the winds and shorter, steep climbs toward St. Joseph. Weather could turn this simple stage into a grueling slugfest pitting riders against each other and Mother Nature. The win in front of St. Joseph’s city hall will take more than powerful legs. A strong team will have to work together for this victory.

09-ToM-Stage-7-MapStage Seven – Kansas City, circuit race, 72.3 mi. (116.4 km)
Not your typical parade stage to finish the tour, this circuit through Kansas City’sgreater downtown area is hard. Countless technical corners and short steep hills await the field this day and the overall champion will have to earn it. After a start at KCLive! in the new Kansas City Power and Light District, Crown Center will welcome that deserving champion at the end of this challenging day.
