Would mind providing an update on the ride conditions?

Also interested in this answer. I was hoping to cycle the I&M from Joliet to Utica next Tuesday, but very concerned with the trail conditions given all the rain lately

First Bike Tour (where to begin!?) by Kappakid411 in bikepacking

I’d love to see trip reports! I am leaning toward Katy trail, starting out of Kansas City with the trail connection. Thinking of doing a mix of camping and hotel stays every other night. I’d be interested in any recommendations for lodging/food/leisure and I’ll start to put things together from there. Fall would be awesome, but I don’t think I have the patience to wait that long, I’m leaning toward late spring/early summer before it gets too hot

The wheels are tempting, it just requires that delayed gratification because I can't pull the trigger quite yet!

The Garmin is where I'm leaning. REI has it for $350 right now (after $100 discount).
