From MO DNR:
Just a reminder that online registration for the 2014 Katy Trail Ride is now open.

If you've ever wanted to experience the entire trail, consider joining us for this fun 5-day ride in June. For more information about the ride or to register, visit http://mostateparks.com/2014-katy-trail-ride

If you can't make the full five days, consider volunteering for the ride -- we would love to have your help! Information about volunteering can be found on the above webpage.

Good ride this year E-W with the long days first in the "flat country" and the short days at the end in the "inclines". And if you are not a camper, they have shuttles to nearby hotels. Well organized and a fun ride but as we all know it may be a little hot and humid. Dawn does a good job.

Dawn and the DNR do an amazing job organizing and sponsoring this ride. It's really a great way to do the entire trail without all the typical worries and logistics when you organize one by yourself. Looks like there's still spots open too. Can't wait :-)

Well, I have signed up! My first organized bike ride. I've only did 5k's with large groups. So, I'm looking forward to seeing what it's like to ride with a large group on the trail! I'm camping out 2 of the 4 nights (free lodgings) And I am planning on dropping my car off in Clinton, before the ride begins. I am hoping it's not too hot out and that my allergies will not be too bad!
 
MidSouth from Rogersville, MO on 3/6/2014 10:46:09 AM:
Will, I wouldn't worry about riding with a large group. You will be surprised how quickly the group gets dispersed along the trail. It will be nothing like riding in the peloton in the Tour d' France! We ride the Pedaler's Jamboree every year and with a thousand or more riders on the same 30 mile stretch of trail, sometimes we are riding alone except at the food, music, beverage stops.

Just as midsouth says it gets congested at stops usually when newbies stop in the middle of the trail. Better to continue through the crowds and stop and walk back to the food, music or beverages.
