2005 Katy Trail Ride -- June 20-24, 2005
Day 4 - June 23, 2005 - Hermann to Augusta
The riders arrived early in Hermann once again to have breakfast provided by the Pancake Man. The Pan Cake Man flipped flapjacks to the riders outside of the VFW building, and the participants feasted on pancakes, sausage, fruit, cereal, milk, coffee and juice. After the meal, the luggage and tents were loaded on the trucks and the riders set out for Augusta.
The riders enjoyed a shorter trip today traveling 37.7 miles to Augusta. Once in Augusta, the participants could enjoy wine at one of the many wineries, the brewery, a free massage by Halcyon of Augusta or meander through the town. The Church of Christ provided the evening’s meal. They served a homemade meal of roast beef, mashed potatoes, green beans, dessert, lemonade and tea. After the dinner, the riders went to Centennial Farms and Orchard for the riders’ meeting lead by Melanie Robinson. After the meeting, there was wine tasting and live music for everyone to enjoy. After the evening’s events, the riders made there way back to the camp to rest up for the 27-mile trip to St. Charles.
