Good Morning,
I am going to attempt riding from McKittrick back to St. Charles. I have my AmTrak ticket and should be all set. I have a few questions to the more experienced KT Riders (as well as anyone who lives along the trail):
1. Is the ride across the bridge (at Hermann) an easy one? I seem to recall someone telling me that the bridge has a bike lane.
2. Are the facilities along the way open? In other words, are the bathrooms available, or are they locked for the season? I seem to recall that there are places to get water along the way.
3. How about the businesses who cater to the trail - are they open or do they close for the season?
Thanks for your help!
