Great Peanut Tour September 7-10, 2006

The Peanut Tour has been described by some as an eating event for those people with a cycling disorder! Actually, it is 4 days of generally flat riding. The event gets its eating reputation from the numerous rest stops along each ride. In fact, it is very difficult to ride more than 10 miles without encountering one.

Most participants camp and all the rides start and finish from the campgrounds.

Camp

Friday, most of us did the 81 mile Lake Gaston ride. Along the way, we stpped for a movie!

There are a lot of rest stops.

One of the favorites is the post office at Valentines.

After all that riding, one needs to relax back at camp.

On Saturday, most of us did the 62 NC Metric and a few took a short cut.

The dinosaur house.

Back at camp for more relaxing.

Saturday evening is our "dress up" night. Once again the theme was faux formal.

And we ate.

David & Judy danced after dinner.
