We're riding the trail from Clinton to St. Charles in 3 weeks. We're in our 60's, riding hybrids and staying in hotels. We've ridden most of the trail, but in chunks, over the last several years. Still trying to decide if we should do it in 6 or 7 days. We're doing 30+ mile rides on the weekends and shorter rides during the week to prepare. Would appreciate any thoughts on this matter. Thank you in advance.

If you do it in 7 days you'll have more opportunities to "stop and smell the roses." If you are able to spend 7 days crossing Missouri on the Katy, I say do it. Biking 30 miles/day and taking 7 days will give you opportunities to enjoy the Katy Trail's uniqueness, the small towns along the trail, the places you stay at, and meet and visit with other bikers. I used to live in Jefferson City and loved biking the Katy Trail. There's so much to absorb. Have a great time!
