Nice! Thanks for educating me on that. Can't wait to ride it out. Very familiar with the Indian Creek Trail, but wasn't aware there was a good link to a route that goes into the south Plaza area. Very cool.flyingember wrote:really? Because that's actually one of the few doable safe bike routes across the city. There's very few places in KC which can get to midtown on bike without large amounts of time on road and have it be as direct.StL_Dan wrote:I was just talking to a co-worker about biking from Olathe all the way to downtown. There really isn't any way to do that efficiently, much less safely. Would be extremely cool to take a day to ride the 20 miles up, tour the city, mid town and westport, and wherever else, then ride back. Oh well....WinchesterMysteryHouse wrote:Best thing to do in KC is to bike it!
Rent 'em or buy some refurb'ed from 816 Bike Collective!
The thrifts will sell you any busted-ass bike for $$$.
816 makes 'em road-ready for about the same price as thrift/craigslist, fact.
Get to Indian Creek trail where it's roughly at Santa Fe at South Mur-Len. this takes you all the way to Holmes Road in KC in almost a straight line.
Then you go north on Holmes to the Trolley Track Trail which gets you all the way to UMKC.
