Greetings from Missouri

Greetings All,

Been a lurker for a while, decided to join up and post a little. Live in Columbia, MO and ride a Trek FX 3. Doing a little simple touring around the Katy trail here with an overnight here and there. Hoping to expand that over time.

Thanks,
Cpt. Bob

Hello and welcome! How's the rain? Radar looks pretty miserable in Missouri.

Hi Cpt. Bob.

I live over in Illinois, but ride the entire Katy at least once a year. That MKT Trail into Columbia is a nice ride by itself.

Hey Jerry,

Yes we are pretty lucky to have some nice trail access here from Columbia. I just recently did the ride from St. Charles back to Jeff City on the Katy. Fun Ride. Looking now to do the other side and the new Rock Island spur from Windsor up to Pleasant Hills by Lees Summit.

Welcome to Bike Forums! We have a nice touring section that you may like. There's a lot of people on there who know their stuff and they are pretty nice, too.
