Watching your videos made me want to see other videos on the KATY. After doing so, your videos are probably the best out there in quality and commentary. Thank you for sharing your travels.

This is my area I ride in. Mostly between Boonville and Hartsburg. I go to Coopers and Rocheport for lunch almost once a week. We love the snack shack!

Casey's Pizza is pretty decent after riding! Also I noticed Pop's Shoreline jersey; I'm headed to that event on Friday. 😊

Thanks for sharing! I love that your dad is unfazed by the camera. He just does his own thing while you film! 😂

I love your videos! Thanks for making these. At my boring office job i watch them and it brings me back. I’ve done the Katy several times about to do it again in 2 weeks! On my e bike. Please keep on doing what you’re doing.

Great memories of this trail... MCBAAAAAAAANE! And nice shout out to Stobe. RIP wherever he is...

Another great video Brian! Seen that oak tree when my brother in law was going to Mizzou. Thanks for sharing and stay safe.

omg...total bonus points for "hit the hay". I've said that my whole life and several friends have said I just made that expression up. lol.

Great video, Brian. I always enjoy your journeys. Well done.

Thanks for the great scenes. It is heartwarming to know know there are still places like that trail side snack shack that people can still trust others to be honest and pay for items without someone watching!

Brian, Thanks for another installment. It is a bit of a ride down memory lane since I rode from west to east on the Katy. I think the section you rode here was my favorite of the entire trail. That's not to say that I didn't enjoy the whole ride but this is a fantastic stretch. Thanks again for sharing.

Great trip so far. The KATY is on my bucket list. I use to watch Stobe, miss his videos.

Thank you for taking pictures of the food before you start eating it. That irritates me when bike packers munch on it for 10 minutes then take the damn pic 😂 nice adventure. Thanks for sharing

Just found your channel, love the videos. I’m hooked and I don’t even ride a bike.

So awesome that you can do this trip with your dad. Have you mentioned how old he is? Really enjoy your videos ❤

Thanks Brian. Maybe our trails will cross someday 😁👍

Great stuff, Brian. Loved the outro into the rain.....

Wonderful video - the Katy rocks !! Greetings from Rapid City SD !! Great bicycling here - everyone is welcome to visit here in SD !!

What awesome scenery and finding those shelters is so cool. Never to early for ice cream. Now that's a motto I can get behind. Thanks for the video and take care, Al

So lovely 🌹,. I am enjoying hearing the bike spinning my new bike is quiet and I hate not hearing the spokes or whatever it is that sounds when not pedaling..do you have any tips on how to adjust it so I hear it or is that just how some companies make them now 😢

Great video as always Brian! Loving the new series

Great Ride . You passed through only six days after my July 29, 2022 ride to Cincinnati. The London Ohio primative camping is awesome. I have never camped there, it is only 23 miles west of my Columbus home base but I stop there to use the restroom, a superb alternative to a porta potty. I stopped on a cold ride recently, Feb 25, 2024 when my Wahoo bike computer had displayed 14° . By the time I got there, it was 35° but my hands really needed that warm dryer. July 2022 of course that was no issue. I did ride through that construction detour too between S Lebanon and The Monkey Bar. Tough climb followed by a ride on the shoulder of OH48 with dump trucks and cars, 5:40 pm then the ride west on that sketchy near no shoulder US22 OH3 with at least one impatient driver yelling "Get the #$censored$# off the road!" despite it being the marked detour for the Little Miami Trail around the Peters Cartridge Factory closure. That is finished as of December 2023. I have not made it back. Loveland was nice, then on to Hamilton County and by Moeller High School and finally US 50 where you turn off the trail and ride the road through Mariemont. I did all of Columbus to Cincinnati between 6 am and 10 pm. Watched fireworks at Reds Stadium at 10:20 pm. Gnats and Mosquitoes were difficult on the Ohio River Trail. I had in 121 miles when I crossed the Roebling Bridge to Covington and Newport.

I see you got to travel on the new bridge over the Missouri…I crossed in 2005 on a narrow 1930’s bridge with only 2 ten foot lanes! The new bridge opened in 2007.

A good trip.

Fun stuff, thanks!

Great looking bike

Thank you, Brian 😎👍

Brian, thanks for sharing. Making memories with Dad is awesome!

Brian, nice to meet you and your dad as well. I'd always wondered if we'd cross paths. If you get up near Madison, look me up.

What type of nutrition do you get to keep up..I can barely Ride up 8-10 miles and I'm exhausted.. of course I'm at 5200 ft. Hopefully I can figure it out. I got protein mix

Really nice to see parts of the Katy that I haven’t seen. Thanks 🙏 for sharing and have fun and stay safe. 😊

Love your videos, we did parts of the Katy trail last year with our granddaughter ❤ Also did it east to west and west to east on two different tours. We love it!

That's a good day of riding. Your Dad is doing amazing. Thanks for the video and take care, AL

2500Wh+! no wonder you can get 150 miles out of a charge! Still you need be a little frugal as 20Wh per mile only gives 130 miles of range!

I love this channel so much! Great to see you on tour again. 👍

Enjoy and stay safe! 😊

RV parks always charge so much to just pitch a tent. Oregon state Parks have hiker biker at every state park, and there is a lot of them, and they're only 8 bucks. I rode across the USA in 2012 and went thru the Ozarks. KATY trail looks awesome and flat! The Ozarks where beautiful, and I hit 60 mph on a quarter mile drop, fastest speed I hit all the way across the country.

I’m hoping to ride the Katy Trail this fall, so thanks for the videos! I’m trying to decide about making daily camping reservations or just winging it some nights. How do you decide? I just don’t want to get caught out with nowhere to sleep at the end of a long day of riding.

As always another great trip report. I am already looking forward to the next installment. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for the ride along, Brian 😁👍

I always enjoy your videos, particularly when you're taking a trip I've done (this one) or want to (most of the others). Great to see your perspective on the Katy, and am also pleased it's so busy.

I’m liking the new adventure. Looks like you fellas are having a great time. ✌️

Free is good. Another good section of trail down. Thanks for the video and take care, Al

Very happy to see another one. I just did the Fred Meijer white pine trail here in MI this weekend. My first big bike packing trip. Can’t recommend it enough. Completely paved with so much scenery, breweries, camping etc. unbelievable ride and very flat. Is now an annual trip. Hope you do a video on it for a weekend getaway

I have got to get there.

What a ride buddy - I love your biking videos !!

awesome vid as always ! been waiting for another trip :D

Crystal lake , i hate pete craiglist hunter

Love seeing your rides. I've been camping many of the same places, but with a 12-speed Bianchi road bike, not battery powered. Iowa, Nebraska, Colorado, Texas, Kansas, Indiana, Of course, that was when I was younger. I struggle to think about any ebike due to weight considerations. My Bianchi with a rack weighs just 15 lbs - basically nothing compared to your setup. With a handlebar bag and panniers, it can be 35-45 lbs, which is probably what the batteries weigh. Lived in Austin for 4 yrs and my parents moved to San Antonio for about 10 yrs after I started working in Houston. Anyway, with Texas so close to Mexico, many town names are pronounced based on Spanish pronunciation. Llano === Yano, for example. Fredericksburg and New Braunfels are based on German immigrants, hence why there are breweries and wursts places. Yum! Central Texas BBQ is considered the best in the world by many people too. NC and KC and Memphis BBQ are each tasty in their own way, but there's something about the lean, sliced brisket from a central Tx BBQ joint that brings tears to my eyes. I miss it. Worked my way through University at an Austin BBQ place. My mother's BBQ was so nasty (she's from ND and didn't know better), that I didn't even try the brisket where I worked for 2 yrs. Central Texas has a beauty all its own. Took me a long time to find the mesquite and scrub beautiful. Now, it is where I want my ashes spread after I die. About 15 miles east of Austin on Hwy-71 - just put my ashes in the back of a pickup and let the road wind suck me out while going 65+ mph. Obviously, keep the cab windows closed. ;) Anyway, perhaps I'll convert to an ebike and get riding again. Where I currently live, I have to drive about 30 minutes to get to roads where it is safe to bicycle. I've ridden my bike in very busy places, but traffic around here is just scary. I miss being in the middle of nowhere Nebraska where a pickup passes every hour or so and just the farm dogs are the only real danger, not distracted drivers. A brother-in-law was biking on a rural road in NW Iowa and was hit in the head by one of those big dually pickup mirrors. He spent over a month in hospital and wasn't able to work due to brain damage for over a year. He was a tenured professor at a small college there. Completely destroyed his life because of a distracted driver. 100% an accident and the driver stopped immediately and took him to a hospital and his insurance paid all the expenses ... but not the lack of income or time spend recovering at home. Life is full of dangers.

Hi from Australia 👋What an outsanding trip and videos, many thanks, enjoyed them all. 👍
