Hey, I did the Katy on July 3rd 2025 as a 15 year old. I did it in 16 hours 57 minutes elapsed, and 14 hours 38 minutes moving. But I can’t seem to find the place where I put my ride on this website. Does anyone else know how?I have proof of ride on Strava but don’t know how to put the link in here.

Thanks! Cooper white.

Congratulations Cooper! That's an amazing accomplishment - and yes, as far as I know you are the youngest person to have ever done this.

Please email me the Strava link and any other details that you think are relevant, at contact@trailhub.com and I'll get you added to the Single Day Riders page at https://bikekatytrail.com/one-day.aspx

Again, congrats!

What's the point; it's not a racetrack. Slow down and enjoy the scenery which you obviously missed in your haste.

He's 15. He has lots of time left to do it again another way if he wants to.

I think the point is that he set a very difficult goal and accomplished it.
I'm sure most of us of a certain age have complained about young
Not getting out and doing stuff. This young man got out and did something.
Good for him.
There is no "correct" way to enjoy the Katy......you enjoy your way and let others
enjoy it their way.

Way to go Cooper! Great job. I have done the whole trail a few times but I was touring each time. Fastest I did it was 3 days. I am thinking about trying it in one day next year when I am 74. I'll be riding my WAW velomobile the next time. You can go to velomobileworld.com to see what velomobiles look like. 3 wheels with a complete CF shell. They are very aerodynamic, fast, and comfortable.
