Easy riding, on a 6-day, 170 mile adventure. We will discover blissful riding on the KATY rail trail along Missouri River visiting the river towns of Booneville, Jefferson City, Hermann, Sedalia, and Augusta. The area along the Missouri is historically known for its wineries which will be a priority second only to the cycling.
Tucked away in the Missouri River Valley, Hermann is a picture-book village where red brick buildings and rolling vineyards welcome you to Missouri Wine Country. The area's seven wineries produce about one-third of the state's wine.
Jett Manor on Elderberry Hill, our overnight location, is a scenic estate located high on the bluff with stunning views of the Missouri River Valley. This estate is nestled between an organic Elderberry Farm and the Katy Trail, and is 2 mile from historic Hermann, MO. This spacious 12K square foot home provides ample living and dining areas. There is a beautiful great room with a wood burning fireplace, piano room, bar area, sunroom, deck and gazebo. Guests can also enjoy the hot tub, sauna, steam shower and exercise room.
This is a fully supported tour with indoor accommodations, meals in local establishments or at overnight location, on-route SAG, and luggage transportation.

Renting your bicycle for your tour can be one of the most cost effective options for your tour. However, due to the lingering effects of COVID-19, bicycle rentals are in very limited supply. If you wish to rent a bicycle for your our, you should procure your rental as soon as possible to make sure you will have the type and size bike you need. You should also consider bringing your own pedals and bicycle seat (not the post) with you on your tour. Riding with a seat that you are already comfortable using will prevent most saddle issues on the tour. Pedals are important as your cycling shoes are already fit to the type of pedals you already own. BIKEternity will make sure that your saddle and pedals are installed on the rental and will swap them out again at the end of your tour.
You can also ship your bicycle to a bike shop close to our overnight location. We recommend using BikeFlights.com. Please visit them for exact instructions.
