Planing to go late October and was curious to know how busy it was around that time? I'm assuming all campgrounds would still be open around then as I plan on tent camping. Any thoughts or tips would be appreciate it.

Cheers,
Jaek

and is it safe to leave my car parked at the pilot grove trailhead for say 5 days

The first week of October is one of my favorite times to ride. The leaves will probably not have started changing by then, but the air is crisp with low humidity -- perfect for biking. Pilot Grove is a wonderful small farming town. Very laid-back and safe. I would just make sure the police department (or Cooper County Sheriff) knows that you are leaving your car there, so it doesn't get towed. You could also talk to Jerry at the Katy B&B across the street to get his opinion. He was a former policeman.

Campgrounds have all still been open in October when I have ridden in years past. But best to check first since nothing is normal in 2020!

If we get a lot of rain, you might plan on ending in St. Charles, as the rest of the trail to Machens would be impassable.
