A caution to those considering riding the Katy Trail. Due to flooding, I've heard sections were closed. I read clearing it up might take some time.
For example, here is a page that might help:

Missouri Captain James Allen recommends Wheelmen riding to the 52nd Meet use Highway 36 for 194 miles from Hannibal to St. Joseph.

Um, is this a typo?  Was this meant as Hannibal to Sedalia?
Rt 36 isn't a direct route to Sedalia.

A direct route from Hannibal to Sedalia is only 150-160 miles.
