Think of the best gathering you've ever been to. Was it a class reunion, a family get-together or a camp-out with your Scout troop? How about a Halloween party or a club meeting of people who are passionate about the same interests or a Thanksgiving dinner? For the 25th time, you are invited to an Adventure which is the best of all of those things.
The Tour de Donut is a unique bicycle event, where your ability to eat donuts is just as important as your ability to ride your bicycle fast. The event is a mass start timed bicycle "race" where riders visit two "donut stops" during the 30 mile course or one stop for the 15 mile mini and eat donuts. For each donut the rider eats during the ride (and keeps down) they have 5 minutes deducted from their ride time. There are prizes in several classes including the coveted golden Tour de Donut championship belt for the best adjusted "donut time".
