GET YOUR KICKS ON ROUTE 66

Thanks to "Route 66, the Illustrated Guide Book to the Mother Road" written by Bob Moore and Patrick Grauwels and the recent brown "Historic Route 66" signs that appear next to regional route signs, we are able to locate and drive the old route (dating sometimes from 1918). Without these, we would be easily lost as the mother road is no longer on official maps nor on the brand new flashy GPS.

Grâce au "Route 66, the Illustrated Guide Book to the Mother Road" écrit par Bob Moore et Patrick Grauwels ainsi qu'aux récents panneaux bruns "Historic Route 66", nous avons pu parcourir cette route fantôme qui n'apparaît plus sur les cartes routières actuelles ni sur celles de notre beau GPS dernier cri.
