We woke up the morning of May 3, 2006 to an approaching cold front/rainstorm that according to the National Weather Service (and the Weather Channel) was going to park itself over central Missouri for a few days with severe thunderstorms included in the mix. We were on our tandem, pulling a Burely Nomad trailer, which is not the best for riding a soggy Katy trail (it tends to bog down with all that weight) so with our vacation time coming to an end, decided to sadly wrap up our trip by having someone shuttle us back to our van at St. Charles.

We were staying at the Meyer Hilltop b & B and they recommended we call the Herman Ride, Rest and Go Bicycle Shop in Herman for a shuttle. We called around 8am-ish, had the owner answer the call, and he informed us a shuttle would not be a problem and he could do it within an hour or so.

By the time we were packed up, the shuttle arrived, loaded up our tandem and trailer inside the van (we have S & S couplers on the tandem so it splits into two sections), and we were on the way, arriving in St. Charles with a very reasonable charge for the ride.

If you are needing a shuttle service, or bike service (the owners of the B & B said the shop owner is a great mechanic), I would highly recommend the Hermann Ride, Rest & Go Bicycle Shop.
