I am sorry and disappointed that many of your pie rides did not work out. I had a great one!
First thing this morning, TheMister and I participated in a Riding and Safety Skills Workshop sponsored by the League of American Bicyclists for the MS City to Shore ride we will be participating in next week. TheMister mapped out a route from that location to the pie place we had chosen.
After the workshop, we biked the nine miles in sunny, humidity-free, 82 degree weather to Johnson’s Farm, a well known local farm market. We were surprised to find out that every weekend, the farm hosts what can be described as a mini county fair, replete with petting zoo, hayrides, a bluegrass band and of course, pie!
The market doesn’t sell single slices of pie, so unfortunately, we had to buy and try to eat a whole delicious blueberry pie! Tough job, but we had to give it a go!


The market was so nice, I convinced hubby to bring me back after we biked back to retrieve our car. This picture shows some Mums we bought, but not the cinnamon candle, apples, fresh apple cider, pastries and tomato & onion quiche I bought, as well.

So in summarizing my day, I improved my cycling skills, took a lovely bike ride, ate pie and got to shop-all while outdoors enjoying our fabulous September weather!
This may well have been “Miss Kenton’s Perfect Day.” I love the Pie Ride!
