I always wonder how far people have ridden when we see them on our end. We passed the Bike & Build team last year. The trail is also mentioned in Kurmaskie's book, "Momentum."
Lucky you!! We liked that leg of the trail. I need to post a picture on the blog of that huge tree nearer to St. Charles - know the one I mean?

We definitely enjoyed Missouri, it is a beautiful state. The Trail is an unbelievable resource - the longest state park I've ever seen. Glad we are so close to it too.

We saw a couple of stages of the Tour of Missouri in 2008 and have wanted to bike there ever since. Glad we did, now that we know how great it is we'll be back!
