Relocating to the Overland Park area...biking question?

Here is a link to the Johnson County Trail maps, you can request a hard copy via email or pick one up at the Shawnee Mission park Ranger Station.

I do most of my bike related shopping at BikeSource at 135th and Quivira. Run stuff comes either from Gary Gribble's at 119th & Quivira or the New Balance store at 119th between Nall and Metcalf.

Lots of great bike trails in Johnson county and they keep adding/connecting them as time goes on. They are in the middle of connecting my subdivision to the Olathe section currently.

For most of my rides, I head south out of town and ride on the road around the Stillwell, Springhill area.

Thanks everyone!  Very helpful information.

Out of curosity are most of you year round outdoor riders?  Not talking everyday as the days get shorter but do you find that you still get out for a weekend ride most of the year?  Coming from Minneapolis where that is not quite the case for me (but is for some). 

That's just crazy. Clearly 96.5 plays better music

If you have the gear and the roads are dry, the temp can be pretty low. One thing you'll have to watch out for is all the sand/salt residue on the shoulders if it has snowed recently. I'd imagine you've had plenty of experience with that in Minnesota though.

Also, if football is on, it seems like my threshold goes up a few more degrees. I'll deal with being indoors on the trainer if there's something to keep my interest while I spin. 

I do most of my workouts at the fitness center at work, but I also belong to Prarie Life Center for pool access. They have locations in Overland Park (103rd east of Metcalf) and Olathe (135th east of Blackbob).

I've only been to the Overland Park location a few times when the Olathe pool was closed. They both have indoor and outdoor pools with lap lanes. The OP location has a kids swim team that takes up some of the schedule for the indoor pool in addition to the usual array of water aerobics, lessons, etc.

Both places also have several Masters swim sessions. I think they are on similar schedules (Tues & Thurs mornings and a different group that meets Tues & Thurs evenings). There's also one on Saturday morning in Olathe, not sure about OP.
