- Route 66 festivalsSpringfield calls itself the birthplace of Route 66, since the highway's name was proposed there in 1926. It holds a Route 66 festival, usually in summer, and towns along the road hold their own. Check local organizers for dates.
- AMA Supercross in St. LouisThe Dome at America's Center has hosted a round of AMA Supercross in many recent seasons, usually in winter or spring. A race to watch, not a ride. Check the Supercross schedule.
- Distinguished Gentleman's RideEvery May, riders dress sharp on classic and vintage-style bikes and ride for men's health. St. Louis, Kansas City and Springfield usually host rides. Register on the DGR site.
- Lake of the Ozarks ralliesThe Lake of the Ozarks has hosted a large fall bike rally in past years. Confirm it's running, and the dates, with the organizer before you plan a trip around it.

Giving back
Charity rides, poker runs and toy runs
Much of Missouri's riding calendar is charity rides and poker runs put on by clubs, rider groups, churches and dealers, from wine country runs out of St. Louis to Ozark loops out of Springfield. Toy runs pick up in November and December, and Missouri's milder winters often let them run later than up north.
Most are posted locally, so check the events map, and if your club's ride isn't there, post it. Riding to Fayetteville for Bikes, Blues & BBQ? Our guide to the best motorcycle roads in Missouri covers the Ozark roads on the way.

- Check the radar in spring. Storms and flash flooding hit fast.

- Ride home in daylight. Deer are hardest to see at dusk.
