MISSOURI
Missouri marks the two-thirds milestone in Craig's SOLO race across America.
Blending Midwestern and Southern culture, Missouri is home to ragtime, Kansas City jazz, and St. Louis Blues, along with famous Kansas City-style and St. Louis-style barbecue.
Outside of the large cities popular tourist destinations include the Lake of the Ozarks - the location for the popular Netflix series Ozark.
With landmarks including 'Wheatland', Craig will race close by St Louis and across the Mississippi River into Illinois.
