Ride Type: Group
Weather Cancels?
NO cancellation! It's a chilly start, but the Nook closes at 1pm, so we'll ride as fast as I can (not impressive) to make it back by 12:30.
Description:
Today's ride is NOT a casual jaunt, with lots of chitchat and sight-seeing. We're on a MISSION! Hole Foods! Before they close! Surely 25 miles at top speed (OK, 14-16 mph) qualifies us to eat a lovely donut, right? November Birthday Weekly DONUT Ride!
This is WEEK #2 of celebrating my birthday ALL month by riding at least once a week to donuts. We're riding a loop from the oldest donut shop in the area, Donut Nook on St Johns. This is not a swanky coffee joint. Good cheap eats.
What do I need to bring?
Bring your bike in good working order and your helmet. Your wallet. Your appetite. Your backpack for hauling back the goods to friends and family. Maybe some Tums.
Route: Donut Nook Route
Donut History: World War I volunteers wanted to support troops. The Salvation Army dispatched over 250 women to France, who found that battle-tested helmets were perfect for frying up to seven doughnuts at a time.
Expectations:
Please arrive 15 minutes before the start of the ride to sign up and be a part of the announcements and safety briefing.
