ST. LOUIS (KMOV) ? Police are preparing for hundreds of bikers who are expected to take over part of Interstate 70 on Saturday.

The Missouri Department of Transportation called a press conference for Friday morning to discuss how local law enforcement plan to handle the Streetfighterz ?Ride of the Century.?

The event allows sport cyclists to annually descend on St. Louis over the last decade. Last year, two bikers died during the event.

St. Louis City and County police will team up with officers from St. Charles, MoDOT, Illinois State Police and the Missouri Highway Patrol to monitor the weekend ride.
