Planning on doing the full trail west to east this June, what's the best option for getting from the trailhead at Machens to the Amtrak station? We would prefer not to ride through the city. All the shuttle services I've seen so far appear to only move you from point to point on the trail. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

When we did this, we utilized Bike Stop Cafe's shuttle service. They picked us up in Machens and took us to the Kirkwood Amtrak, which we then took back to Kansas City.

Think about Uber or Lyft as well.
