Can anyone recommend a bike route from the St.Charles trailhead to downtown St. Louis? I'm a seasoned urban rider and don't mind rodes with moderate traffic. Thanks for your help.

Just go back up the trail to Washington, get a B&B, spend a relaxing evening without all the hassles of the big city and catch a train the next morning...

Anonymous, your advice presumes that this individual wants to get on a train and go back to wherever they came from, which is not even implied in the question.

Then, there is also the issue of getting to Washington, MO via a bike, which involves a potentially difficult ride across a very narrow Missouri River bridge to Washington, MO, not to mention the fact that Hwy 94 has no shoulders for much of that route.
