WE ARE THERE !!!!!!
Support vehicles and luggage
Cyclists will be accompanied by support vehicles carrying luggage, food, and extra equipment so that individual bicycles need not travel loaded with baggage. A couple of passenger cars will provide space for more luggage and carry water along the route for riders. These cars will be able to offer a lift to injured or overly-tired cyclists.
Want to accompany your child/spouse/parent but don’t want to ride a bike? We are looking for drivers in the “volunteer” section!
Food/Accommodations
Accommodations will be simple and communal: camping, sleeping on Meetinghouse floors, and receiving occasional hospitality from Friends. We ask that all bring a sleeping bag and pad, and, if you have one – a small tent.
Food will be a combination of camping cuisine, sporty snacks, and the mighty power of pot luck from Meetings that host us. Riders are welcome to bring their own snacks and personal items for dietary requirements. Please inform the organizers upon registration of serious food allergies.
