Day 5 - 2006 Katy Trail Ride Day 5 Photos

Preparing to leave on day 5. At 6:30 a.m., the bicyclists were lining up to enjoy one last day with the Pancake Man and one last day of Catch the Katy. Along with pancakes, the riders feasted on sausage, an abundance of fresh fruit, cereal and juices. Once they were finished, they were on their last stretch to end at the Benson Community Center in Clinton. When they arrived, they were greeted by the information booth to check in and grab a survey. After giving us their thoughts and comments on the 2006 Katy Trail Ride, they were off to take a shower and grab a bag lunch courtesy of the Benson Senior Center. The lunch included deli sandwiches, fresh fruit, cole slaw, and a lovely array of cookies.

Some of the bicyclists had to hang around until the buses came to shuttle the riders to Columbia and St. Charles. The participants that parked their cars in Clinton were able to head right on out of town.

Ride organizers received many compliments and there seemed to be many happy riders when we finished the week. We want to thank all of our volunteers, staff and especially the bicyclists that covered 225 miles. Lastly, we want to congratulate all of the participants on their accomplishments and hope to see everybody next year!
