That is why I love touring. When it’s your JOB to ride a bike for a couple of weeks, eating pretty much everything in sight, and you can STILL come up with zero net calories each day you’re having a good day! Oh, it helps to take a couple of pictures of the nice scenery too.

I like where this thread went! I’m down for any kind of riding + donut eating race as long as it does not involve Krispy Kreme. A multi-stage, multi-food event would allow for a lot of variety too. I think I’d be decent at downing a lot of sushi and riding.

Yikes, at the rate this thread is going the course will be infinitely expanding. 😮

I am thinking a multi-stage, regional Tour de Waistline that would include all the above

This story from the WaPo got me thinking that a race to visit 5-10 food trucks in the area would be a cool idea too. Don’t they list their live locations online somewhere? I think order would be key to keeping stomachs from getting angry in this challenge… like don’t do cupcakes before going to grilled cheese or korean tacos, or don’t do the curry one after the pie truck, etc…

Unfortunately they don’t have food trucks out here in Suitland, so I only hear stories about how much fun they can be.

There’s a live map of food trucks.

Do we have donut shops here?

Toby’s Homemade Ice Cream & Coffee
Northside Social Coffee & Wine
Migue’s Magnificent Mini Donuts
Heller’s Bakery
Heidelberg Pastry Shoppe

Unacceptable for not including the Krispy Kreme on Route 1. In college I knew the late-night (early morning?) schedule for hot donuts sign. Whenever I was DD, my charges were required to take a trip down for hot donuts at the end of the night.

In the District, they usually bunch up. But there are lots of people who CaBi over to their favorite food truck. Or maybe just me. But it makes for a happy lunch break.
