This has given us over 800 miles for each month since January, 1998. The team trains in the evening before dark on county roads just outside town. Weekends allow for longer rides over the same courses. Tidewater Virginia's climate rarely prevents riding during the winter months. Although, stationary bikes housed in the school gym are available when foul weather is a reality.
L unches fuel riders with fruits, nuts and grains.
Water is consumed at a rate of one bottle per hour. All other meals are approved by our adult leaders. Menu items mirror a training table diet. Bed and Breakfast Inns or hotel rooms are reserved along the route for each night. The adults maintain a secure environment and each team member contacts their family on a daily basis.
