Any CP'ers in St. Louis that...
 

... can either recommend a safe part of town to lodge in (I hear Ferguson is beautiful this time of year), or conversely, could offer a couch for a night in mid July? Also, recommendations for some local fare would be lovely.

I'm taking a long trip via motorcycle in a month (posted about it HERE) and am having to revise my schedule just a bit.

Instead of stopping in Nashville I intend to ride right into St. Louis from North Carolina. This is strictly a food/rest/sleep thing, as I will have been on the bike for about 12 hours, so I can get back on the bike to get on home.

Michael Brown's family has an empty room you could use.


/Too soon?

The O'Fallons are usually pretty safe.

Eat at Imos Pizza.

Stop at Pattis in Kentucky. Best. Pork. Chops. Ever. Plus they have this cool bread and serve RC.

We go all the time for Shriners hospital visits.

Check out the chesterfield area for lodging, then its a straight shot in to research forest and old downtown stl

This man speaketh thy truth...... And get the 2" pork chop.

That's nice of you to do hometeam to visit people in hospitals, may you be blessed for service to your fellow man.

I stayed at a nice hotel downtown last month. Check it out here: http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showt...ighlight=louis

Downtown St. Louis I like Drury Inn, Crowne Plaza and Westin. St. Louis isn't bad just stay away North of 40 and east of 170 and you will be fine.

Lots of decent strips clubs in east st Louie

Downtown STL - last summer i stayed at the Magnolia, but that might be a little too much for just a place to sleep.

Also, there was a Holiday Inn on Linbergh boulevard that i stayed at one time that seemed nice.

My son is a patient.

Without shriners we would be destitute from his treatment, and it wouldnt have been half as good.

They saved our lives, and if ever I can pull it off, im going to stroke them a big fat check.

My couch has your name on it. But it would be more comfortable in the guest bedroom......

I say this with all Sincerity, avoid that shit hole at all costs! Not even joking, do not go there with a bike.
