On Sunday, Father’s Day, June 20, several communities along the KATY Trail will celebrate the 20th Anniversary of the KATY Trail with a Father’s Day Bike Ride to benefit Prostate Cancer Research at Siteman Cancer Center at Barnes-Jewish Hospital and Washington University School of Medicine. It’s a ride celebrating dads where the whole family can participate regardless of their cycling experience or expertise.

Riders can start from KATY Trailheads in: St. Charles, Maryland Heights, Page Bridge Crossing, Greens Bottom, Weldon Spring, University of Mo Research Park, Matson or Augusta and ride to Defiance where a celebration of food and festivities are planned. A dedication of the new Defiance Bicycle Loop through town allowing cyclists to detour off the main KATY Trail, through Defiance, and return to the Trail in a continuous loop through the quaint town is planned.

Dale Rollings, a member of the Ride Organizing Committee explained: “We thought Father’s Day was a great time to commemorate the KATY Trail, one of America’s most unusual State Parks, while helping to combat one of Dad’s most common health risks – Prostate Cancer. We’ve devised a true family event with distances you can choose to fit your ability.”

Participants will receive a commemorative t-shirt, soft drink tickets, and free water. Pre-registration is $10.00 ($15.00 day of ride). For more information, or to sign-up, go to www.fathersdaybikeride.com.
