A few years ago when I moved to St Charles, my brother and I planned on
biking the trail. We got in touch with a "tour planner" at Momentum Cycles
in St Charles (http://www.momentumcycles.com) and they hooked us up with
several services and discounts. Our plan was to ride Amtrak with the roll on
option out to Sedalia and hit the trail from there, either go to Clinton or
head back to St Chuck. The planner arranged for packages containing clothes
and gear to be sent to several B&Bs along the way where we planned on
resting for the evening. Before we could get our bikes out, I was mobilized
for Iraq and we didn't go. If you go to the website and click on the Katy
Trail Package, that is not what you want, the package is for bike gear like
helmets and water bottles. We planned this out in 04, not sure if they still
offer the tour deals or not, but its worth the call or email. Hope that this
helps.
