I'm planning on biking the trail in May with 3-4 friends. We biked the Natchez Trace last year and averaged about 50 miles per day. Can we expect to do more per day on this trail since the Trace was hilly? I didn't know if the surface would tend to slow us down.

I did 60 on the day we went and i don't consider myself as fit as i would like to be...besides, missouri is a pretty flat state so you shouldnt have any problem doing more:)

We rode from Sedalia to Agusta in June of 2005. It was beautiful and a true adventure. It rained a lot last Spring and the trail was very mushy. We peddled the entire time, no coasting. We had to pick up our bike (a tandum recumbent) 3 times to carry is over downed trees and mud slides. One day we rode 77 miles and it was too long. Our 50 mile day was just about right.

50 miles a day is about right. You can do more, because the trail is extremely flat, but you'll want to take the time to enjoy the scenery, it's beautiful !! When dry, the surface is very hard, but a little mushy when wet.
