                          AND PROCEDURESBreakfast Served by Us
 
  Breakfast
                  served by us will be continental style. If the main lodging
                      site is at a school facility, breakfast will usually be
                    served in the cafeteria area, otherwise it will be served
                    in a
                        large multi-purpose type meeting room. There will be
                    tables and chairs at all facilities for you to be able to
                    sit down
                  and eat at. A rest stop will also be set up directly at breakfast to
                    stock up on snack items and sports drinks for the upcoming
                    ride. If we are doing a group departure, our breakfast will be
                    served up until 15 minutes before the route opening time
                    to ensure
                    you have
                    enough time
                    to
                    pack
                    your
                    gear up
                  and get ready to ride.  CoffeeWe will have plenty of hot, very fully caffeinated
                                    coffee available at breakfast (you wouldn't
                    believe how often we get asked this). OK we know coffee's
                    not the greatest thing to
                  drink before you ride, but you will be very tired and our mornings
                  so start so very, very early. Don't worry, we won't
                  let anybody know you had a cup or two. And we always need to
                  drink a couple cups to get going ourselves.

                items (bacon, sausage, eggs, pancakes, etc.)                   If
                you want any breakfast hot items you will need to get them yourself
                either at a restaurant in stopping town or in one of the towns
                we pass through on the road.

  major reasons.
 First, using toasters would take too much time for every participant
                  to be able to do in a reasonable amount of time in the morning.
                  and we simply cannot supply enough toasters to accommodate
                  all participants. Second, toasters suck a LOT of electricity and if we had too
                  many toasters going at the same time we could very likely blow
                  a fuse. Not only would we have to find the fuse box or call
                  the facility maintenance people to come (if they were even
                  available that early in the morning) we also do not know what
                  else we could blow out with that fuse (like the bathroom lights). Third, we would have to wait a long time before the toasters
                  cooled down enough for us to safely transport them in our support
                  vehicles. All in the morning when our number one priority is
                getting our stuff together to hit the road as early as possible! |
