We spent 5 nights along the Trail: Clinton was start for 2 of us, Sedalia for the other 2, Pilot Grove, Hartsburg, Rhineland, and Defiance).
The Trail – Oh my gosh! We were all so impressed. The conditions were perfect for nearly the entire trail. Just a few sandy patches mostly east of Sedalia, and a few here and there along the way. A handful of shallow ruts, mostly between Defiance and St. Charles. Maintenance does an excellent job of keeping the weeds off the trial and the surface compacted down. Please note there are really no bike shops or available bike maintenance that we could find between Sedalia and Defiance.
