This bike ride to the wineries was so much fun! It was so beautiful in the fall with the colors! I wish it was an hour longer but besides that it was amazing!! We did the regular bikes so it was a tough workout. The wineries were great too!

We loved it. It's was so much fun and bikes were great quality. The track was a little rough and was just gravel but the scenery was spectacular.
