O.k.,I have been bitten by the Katy Bug! My wife and I finished our first "end to end" ride of the Katy last Friday and it was GREAT! We had a very good time and met many fellow riders including Jason, Brian,and Scott from Alabama, another trio from Arizona, a solo rider from Lexington,MO and I even met Tim from Westline,MO! (which we found humurous, we live only 15 miles apart,and meet on the Katy trail near Dutzow, going opposite directions!) We started Sunday in record heat (94 f)and the heat followed us down the trail until Wednesday. I thought the weather was nice, but I enjoy the heat. The trail was in very good condition as usual. :) We have always enjoyed riding the western third of the trail, but to see the whole thing in one week is really amazing. The eastern end was beautiful and I was really taken by the bluffs near bluffton and down the trail near Klondike park (63mm)..... I can't wait to do it again, and this time, camping!

We were also sad that the trip was over. I catch myself sitting at work saying, "this time last week, I was....." Whatever I come up with, it's always better than what I am doing right now. :) The trail was amazing, the people were great, and we will definitely be back! It was great to meet you!

Hey Jason - IMHO the Chief Ladiga isn't exactly a "slouch" rail/trail nevermind the future of being linked with the Silver Comet in Georgia. Totally get that feeling of "remembering" and glad you enjoyed the KATY. Regards.....Mark of the Dalton Boys

j&k, glad ya'll enjoyed the ride, had fun, and am back home safe.

Jason from Huntsville, AL on 10/12/2006 10:35:50 AM:

Mark...I agree. The Ladiga is actually a great trail (especially since it is paved). I can't wait for them to connect it with the Comet. I have also done the Longleaf Trace down near Hattiesburg, MS. It is really, really nice. I'm just happy that these Rails to Trails exist anywhere...they are great!

J&K...you may have talked my dad into a recumbent. He has checked out the local bike shop and may end up getting one. After 280 miles, I was wishing my seat was a little more comfortable...maybe I will get one too. :)
