When we heard the weather was going to be warm and perfect for riding, we put together a last minute ride and left Saturday morning, early on November 1st. We took back roads, through Southern Iowa and into Missouri. We rode some awesome back roads and went through several small towns. We arrived at Hermann Missouri, but there were no rooms as Octoberfest celebrations were coming to a close. The hotels and Bed and breakfasts were all full. It is a German town along the Missouri river with a winery and many intersting shops and more. We found a place to stop for the night. We remembered to reset our watches and took off early this morning, Sunday. We wound our way back towards home. We passed the road going to Mexico, Florida and Louisiana. We did make it to Paris, on our way back home! We rode over Mark Twain lake and saw some of the most beautiful reds, orange and yellow leaves on the trees. The temps were in the 70's and the sun was shining. We got back late afternoon from a wonderful weekend ride.
