I don’t know if the road is racist, but parts of it sure need improving. One part in California was really bumpy, although the scenery was great. One of the best sections of the old road is from Kingman,Az. to Flagstaff. My wife and I traveled that section a few years ago, and it it’s tremendous. My wife loved all the old Burma Shave signs that I’d been telling her about for ten years. She grew up in England and never saw them. She didn’t come to this country until the signs were gone.

it was very dangeros in 1942 when my father drove us from Chicago to Los Angeles. The number of cars hat lost control and went over the many miles of cliffs going through the rockies

I'm almost 71 years old. I have traveled Route 66 since I was 2 1/2. In the old days one could see where the old wooden road had been discarded along side the new asphalt pavement. Talk about bumpy, no water for the radiator and may-pop tires. Ya really had to WANT to go West.

The route 66 museum in Clinton, Oklahoma is worth the trip.

Did you notice the Romney Motel in one of the towns on that Kingman to Flagstaff section? Their sign said that all rooms had phones.
