On Day 0 of Biking Across Kansas 2026 we arrived by bus at Johnson City, which was also the start of the 2013, 2015 and 2018 BAK. The weather was mild for the jaunt to the Colorado border and back (it didn't stay that way). It's not a genuine bike across Kansas if you don't go border-to-border!

You can view this ride in detail at Garmin Connect, Strava, or at Ride With GPS.
