Also, just so you know, Denver to Kansas City is *really* short because the flow of traffic is ~90. I went on a 1900 motorcycle trip with my dad and that road is *really* fast. Fastest drivers/flow was in Missouri. Awesome on my flat 6 cyl 1500 Honda valkyrie.

Don't trust mapquest and the like too much. As a traveler I have come to find out that a real map (randmcnallys) is the best. When you stop, you can plan out the next days journey....look at shortcuts....view mileage.

Trust me when I say to be cautious with mapquest-like services.
