Thank you! We all have a Gary in our lives who needs to see this.

Yes the Flint Hills Trail in Kansas. It's a beautiful trail. ua-cam.com/video/Fpq3g4m9BaE/v-deo.htmlsi=5zLLwTarrHWerl1l

We went completely off route when going through Ottawa to go to Smoked Creations, however I don't remember having any problems when going straight through.

@@lindenmoore so one of the last bridges over the creek must have been fixed/in-place. Now looking back in your vid, it was the last one you and your father stopped at with the benches.

There is still the short detour before you get to Ottawa. It is well established and there is signage. That section is supposed to be finished close to the end of the year. It was going to be finished soon but something about the railbed being raised, and bride footings now being too short , it is delayed. This would make the trail complete from Council Grove to Osawatomie.

Concordo. È la mia sella, e l'ho lasciata così com'è. Dopo aver percorso altri 1.600 km, è più comoda che mai. È semplicemente la mia conformazione fisica, e deve essere il motivo per cui le selle più uniformi non sono comode per me.

You could definitely credit card the Katy. I reccomend planning ahead using the bikekatytrail.com trip planner. You can find places to stay, places to get food, public water and restrooms, etc. I have ridden the Katy in June and July...very hot and humid, but the Katy has a lot of tree cover.

Thanks! I have fallen in love with the saddle. More than 12k miles on it now.

That is a perfect use of a week of vacation! If you want to make planning easy use this website: bikekatytrail.com/planner.aspx. I have used it to plan 3 trips on the Katy. Have fun and thanks for watching.

No problem and thanks for watching and commenting. Too bad we can’t all find 100 bucks every time we go on adventure. My wife might even encourage me to go on more trips. Haha.

Thank you! You can do it! Dad did a great job. If riding in the summer training for the heat is just as important as being physically ready. This summer we are hitting the Flint Hills Trail. Stay tuned!

Yes. It is. This is also just one section of a much longer trail called the Ozark Trail.

Thank you!

Hahaha. Yep. Probably why all other bike seats that I have tried don’t feel good…they are too symmetric.

I really love it out there. I had admired the flint hills from a car driving down the highway when leaving Kansas on trips, and when I found out there was a trail that brought you right into the middle of it I had to go there.

Have fun! It’s a beautiful trail and community of people. This summer my dad and I will be riding the beautiful Flint Hills Trail.

@@lindenmoore where is this trail? I've never heard about this trail.

@@FollowThomas, the Flint Hills Nature Trail is a rail trail that is currently developed from Council Grove, KS to Osawatomie, KS. The developed section is about 94 miles long. My favorite part of the trail is the section from Council Grove to Allen. You are riding right in the middle of the beautiful rolling flint hills in that area. The surface is similar to the surface on the Katy on most of the trail. However, there are some small sections that were volunteer built, and they can be a bit less consistent. I made a video a few years ago, and it is in the last few videos of a series I made about connecting the Katy and the Flint Hills Trail to create a longer week long adventure. Here are some links if interested. Connecting the Katy and FHT Day 8: ua-cam.com/video/LvkgdvBvHFM/v-deo.html Bikepacking on the FHT: ua-cam.com/video/U8DEOVY6wKI/v-deo.html

@@lindenmoore thank you, checking it out now

Yeah. I agree. I always have mine on. Dad was overheating so he took his off that day.

I love it out there!

I seem to have bad timing. I typically ride the trail in June and July and the weather can be unpredictable. I have crossed down trees on all three of my trips. Two years ago there were downed trees from Machens to Rocheport. 3 years ago there was a flood and plenty of downed trees.

Yes! It’s a great bike. Sturdy and light.

I love it out there! It is so unique for Kanas. I also love the Flint Hills as well though. We had a blast. I even went back for a winter overnighter by myself. Thanks for watching!

Haha! Almost. My dad and I are coming up with our plan to attack it again. Enjoy the trail!

Have fun, and thanks for watching! It will be a memory that will last forever. My dad and I were just on a ride and discussing getting back out there ourselves. He wants to try out the hotel to hotel experience (no camping).

Yes. I am riding a Surly Bridge Club. I had 2.35 in hybrid type tires on it. My dad was on a Specialized Sirrus 4.0 with 36(ish)mm tires.

Thanks, again. It’s a beautiful trail.

Thanks for watching! We had a blast!

You too!

I hope you get well soon!

Thanks for watching! This trail is in Missouri, USA. It is a trail built on old railroad. Very flat and about 386 km long. Its a very beautiful place!

Cảm ơn đã xem! Con đường này ở Missouri, Hoa Kỳ. Đó là một con đường được xây dựng trên nền đường sắt cũ. Rất bằng phẳng và dài khoảng 386 km. Đó là một nơi rất đẹp!

No problem! Thanks for watching and commenting. I don’t live near it but I am lucky and my mom lives near Hermann and my brother lives near St. Louis. You should definitely ride some of the Katy, it is the best.

We had a blast and thanks for watching. The history of the trail and those who have opposed is interesting. We have the same sort of thing going on here in Kansas with the Flint Hills Trail. It seems there are a lot of hold outs and as the trail is built most people come around.

Hahaha. You are right. I am not very graceful. More like bigfoot.

I love it out there. Beautiful place!

This is the Elk River Trail near Independence, KS. One of Kansas’s hidden gems.

@@lindenmoore thank you. Looks like a nice hike. We have an Elk River here in Humboldt County, California.

Thanks! It really is!

Hello!

This is actually in SE Kansas believe it or not, near Independence. One of our many hidden gems.

Thank you, and thanks for watching!

Same to you!

Thank you! I love your videos as well!

Happy holidays! So close!

@@lindenmoore thanks I got a to open a Christmas present early and got a blanket
