Sun & Ski will have the annual Tour de Donut bike race.  It is a 28 mile race with donuts at each rest stop.  For every donut you eat 5:00 is removed from your time.  There is also a 100 mile ride.  I will not ride it because I will probably be working tech support at one of the rest stops because it is a S&S sponsered ride and I work for that man.  DO IT!  it's fun and supports the Make a Wish Foundation. Hope to see you all there ROADIES!

I think going for the non 100 mile route and pigging out on donuts is the way to go...

you can have as many donuts as you want, even if you do the 100 miler.  the donuts will only be at the 28 mile rest stops i believe.

I'm thinking of doing this, but maybe doing the family ride.  I'm not quite sure I can keep up with a 28-mile ride yet.

Ok, I signed up for the 28-mile ride.  I'm not very fast, so I'll have to eat a lot of donuts!

You can show up to these things and not pay?

I'm considering doing the 55 miles on my mountain bike, just to see if I can.
