Country Bike Hike
The group of 14 bikers gathered at Ken and Michelle Morningstar’s yard to set off on a crisp, sunny morning to travel to Hampton Roads Winery and Vineyard, about13 miles away in Surry County. The route was along country roads where we scared a few cows, irritated some dogs and breathed in the fresh country air. We stopped briefly at Pons General Store but didn’t go in because the sign didn’t allow stupid people on the premises.
The goats were waiting at the goat tower when we got to the winery, both mamas and kids, and they demonstrated the use of the goat tower for us all. After a picnic lunch, many of the riders enjoyed a wine tasting which brought smiles to all and eased the aches and pains of the ride.
The return trip, via the same route, was capped off with ice cream in the Morningstar’s kitchen. A great time was had by all.
