My wife and I ride tadpole trikes and were wondering if the surface of the Katy Trail would be okay for trikes. We have fairly fat tires.
We rode the Route of the Hiawatha in Montana last year and it was rocky and rough. We'd like to avoid that type of surface.

I saw quite a few trikes, both tadpole and delta, during the 2007 Katy trail ride. They all seemed to be enjoying the trail. The trail was smooth that year with a few soft spots due to recent flooding.

The condition of the trail will depend a lot on the weather just prior to your ride. If it has rained hard, there may be washed out areas and ruts from other bikes and vehicles.
