If 35 miles is too much, can take out loop on Seeburger and just turn back at Mueller Road by soccer park.

Can add loop around Forest Park if desired to up the challenge if you will. This route has some good long steady hill climbs on Midland heading out to West County and a good hill out Marine. Best part is down hill on Marine to reach Creve Coeur Park.
