MR340 Race

Bill Gassen and Ben Glassner are set to paddle the MR340 canoe/kayak race. They will be paddling a Roylex Northwind Bell Canoe. The 340 mile race starts in Kansas City and continues on the Missouri River toward StCharles, Missouri. There are eight different checkpoints along the 340 mile course. The race starts at 8:00 am August 4th and ends midnight August 7th, 2009. That gives the paddlers 88 hours to complete the 340 mile race. Best of luck and safe travels to Bill Gassen and Ben Glassner. (Click on image below for a bigger picture)
