Biking to the Rocheport winery

This saturday we took the MKT and a small part of the Katy (a recreational rail trail that runs 240 miles (390 km) in the right-of-way of the former Missouri-Kansas-Texas-Raulroad) trails to get to the nearby winery in Rocheport, about 30 km away from Columbia :



Trip was supposed to start at 10:30 right infront the MKT trail. Keyword - "supposed".
 Waiting for guys with Anna and David :


 
The first stop - Hindman Junction, intersection of MKT and Katy trail, 14 km are now behind :



Just a nice spot on the way, where Lucian has stopped to make some photos :



Rocks on the one hand, Missouri river on the other :









 Finally arrived at the Rocheport :



Snacks and wine:



Our stop on the way back to finish wine, get some food and enjoy the view. About 42 km are done. People start to go crazy - Marat is swimming, Lucian climbs trees:



Thank you folks for this great combination of sport and drinking trip, 60 km and few bottles of wine are done!
