Katy Trail State Park Awesome ride for all ages and abilities! By jr_kessler in 3/29/2012 12:39:07 PM | I have ridden various parts of this trail, from Machens through Augusta. The trail is mostly flat, and I've seen bikes varying from MTBs to road bikes. The compacted limestone makes for an easy ride, except for a few spots, or after a hard rain. Lots of things to do and see along the way, including side trails, parks, restaurants, shops, bar/grills, and wineries. It's a great way to see the state. We are lucky to have access to this gem.
