After the Ride

After our ride we'll meet back at Barrel Oak Winery (http://www.barreloak.com/) (about 1:00 PM) to enjoy craft beer, wine, food, music, and great conversation with friends.

Outside food is OK so bring something to share

There are plenty of bathrooms so I recommend bringing a change of clothes.
