Description:  Ride a paved bike path, crossing the Boone Bridge and proceed down to the Katy Trail towards Augusta (unpaved) .  We’ll ride around 40  miles to Augusta and back.  BUT since it’s an easy route, feel free to ride further or return earlier.  Lunch is an option in Defiance or Augusta.  Leader will go around 12 or 13 mph, but everyone can ride at their own comfortable speed.  You won’t be dropped if you ride slower.  I will stay with you.
