I would like to ride the Katy Trail in September. Will my road bike with 28mm tires work on the trail?

They should, but the type of tread is important. Katy is made up of packed chat that can become muddy and slick in places after a rain, which can happen in September. I would recommend tires with good overall traction. Good luck and have fun.
