I am not sure WHY there is such a puch to ride the Katy in 24 hours. I planned a 7 day ride and enjoyed every mile of it viewing streams, wildlife and foilage not to mention the bluffs and Old Many River plus some really special locals who live along the trail. I am a very athletic 77 year old woman and rode it alone to savor a very special state. If anyone wants suggestions for an indepth adventure on this longest narrowest state park pleasce contact me.

Congratulations on your ride. It sounds great.

In answer to your question - I can think of many reasons to do it in a day and I can also think of many reasons to do it in 7.

That's the beauty of the KATY....it is open to adventures of all kinds.

Congratulations again on the ride.

It was wonderful to read your description of your experience and I was amazed you did this alone! How fantastic! My husband and I are planning a Katy Trail trip in the next couple of years and definitely want to savor every moment as you did.
Thank you!
