Crossroads Tours offers comprehensive information and support services backed by extensive knowledge, experience, and local area networking/rapport. This was subsequently reinforced by Lukeās great customer service; altogether, providing a solid level of comfort going into the 6-day self-guided cycling adventure. The Katy Trail is a spectacular avenue of natural scenic beauty and historical structures. The trail is mostly hard packed crushed stone that is well maintained. Rainy weather created a 1/2 mile stretch that needed to be detoured around on an adjacent service road. Wet weather also caused several portions of the trail to become a bit spongy to peddle through, but certainly not impossible. The overnight accommodations were incredible - well preserved, finely adorned historic hotels/BnBās. Itās a fabulous cycling adventure overall.
