<p>I guess it depends on what kind of ride it is. After a century+ kind of ride, I'd hope there'd be post-ride food because you can barely keep up your calorie intake during that distance. I wouldn't 100% rely on it if I have dietary restrictions, but for immediate replenishment, I'd be very unhappy if there was nothing...</p>

<p>I prefer self supported rides and bringing snacky bars, fruit (oranges/apples), and then stopping and eating big meals at restaurants. I'm an introvert and like riding on my own or with one or two friends, the more people and the more organized a ride is, the less of a sense of freedom and adventure I feel (although don't get me wrong, I do get enjoyment out of the organized rides too). I also like going on my own schedule and feeling like I can take my time and eat the big meals I want to…</p>

<p>My first North Shore Century (and first actual century) took place on a cool, drizzly day. They had marvelous potato soup at the halfway stop in Kenosha. Best rest-stop food ever and incredibly thoughtful. </p>

<p>I took the other piece of toast and smooshed it. I did add a little salt. Wrapped it in saran wrap (ran out of paper towels), and stuffed it in the back pack.</p>
<p>After I arrived at the office, I systematically took it out of the backpack, and placed it in the refrigerator. I think it will cause jealousy and mayhem within the working environment. </p>

<p>that's awesome. What do you think?</p>
<p></p>
<p>Another approach is to mush it all up with a little olive oil and salt and spread it on French bread (you are so healthy with your wheat toast!). It's a little more portable when it's used as a spread. :-)</p>

<p>Tour de Shore has a pancake stop on the first day and at the end of the day the last stop before the overnight has a nice outside beer garden. It also ends in a cookout on the beach (second day) before boarding the bus to head back to the city.</p>

<p>North Shore Century is known for excellent home made cookies and other goodies. One of the well known treats at Apple Cider is home made soup at one of the rest stops - really great on a chilly morning.</p>
