4 of us are taking the Amtrak to Kirkwood from Sedalia & want to bike back to our car at Sedalia. What is the best route to the Katy Trail from Kirkwood? What abut the bridge, traffic???

TW, you can click on ~Katy Trail Maps~ above and then click on ~Kirkwood Train Station to Katy Trail~, there are several options that people have submitted. Being in Metro St.Louis, there is going to be traffic any route you take, but maybe those suggestions will help you choose the route with the least of it.

There is at least one B&B in St. Charles that will shuttle you from Kirkwood, an option that appeals to me more than riding in the traffic. I believe it is the Lococo House. Show Me Shuttle, is also list as being in the St. Louis area. Good luck and enjoy your ride.

If you consider going all the way into St. Louis on Amtrak instead of stopping at Kirkwood, I found the ride from St. Louis to St. Charles VERY doable. In fact, I really enjoyed it. See my entry under "How to get to Downtown St Louis and Mississippi River from the Katy Trail by bike". Just reverse the directions.

We stayed at Lococo House this last September and the folks there were great. While we didn't use their shuttle services on that trip, we plan to in the future. Check out their website!
