Written Directions

Start your route in the town of Sloan, IA (which is just about 20 miles southeast of Sioux City, IA). From Sloan just head east/southeast on Route 141 to Ute, IA.

Scenery

It's Iowa. Not much but corn and beans. It's the road that is important.

Drive Enjoyment

The road conditions change from town to town. Part of it is a tad worn out but still very safe.

Tourism Opportunities

Small towns scatter this run (ex. Hornick, Smithland, Mapleton).

I quite agree with Mike Lueken's assessment on the route. Need to start at the old 141 in Sioux City and run to Dennison. Very pretty with a nice curvy road which is what I give the 4 for.

Mike is absolutely correct. By missing the old 141 connection out of Sioux City you may be missing the most beautiful part of the ride. In contrast, by leaving from Sloan, you are gaining the least interesting part of the ride. Those two alternate stretches are at the opposite ends of the spectrum in terms of riding enjoyment.

I have ridden this route from Sioux City (Morning side Ave) through to Soldier, IA. It is a windy road and conditions do change throughout the ride, but a good road to ride. Brought many out of town friends down this route and they all have enjoyed it.
