Food

You won’t go hungry at the Bike Virginia Tour! All new for 2013 we are offering an all inclusive meals plan.

We know food is an important and fun part of a bike tour. We’ll offer a full compliment of meal choices.

At the time of registration you can select:

1. All Inclusive Meals

or

2. Lunch Only

Friday’s Dinner is included for all registered participants. It’s our welcome celebration, just for you.

All Inclusive Meals

The all inclusive meals option includes: Saturday-Wednesday Breakfast, Saturday -Wednesday Lunch, Saturday-Tuesday Dinner. A total of 15 meals will be served including the “open to all participants’ dinner” on Friday.

We strongly recommend this option if you want the easiest access to food. Dining can be plentiful in some communities and very limited in others. We will not be running evening food shuttles in 2013. Our evening shuttles will be to sightseeing locations which may or may not offer food. Please do not depend on the sightseeing shuttles to get you to dining.

Breakfast (5 Meals) Served June 22-26

If you take part in the All Inclusive Meals choice, beginning on Saturday you’ll get a tasty breakfast at camp to start your day off right. This easy and quick meal will include a variety warm foods, fruit, bagels, yogurt, coffee and tea. It’s a great place to meet friends and plan your ride for the day. See the breakfast menu’s here…

Lunch (5 Meals) Served June 22-26

A catered lunch will be served each day, Saturday through Wednesday.  This meal is served to both participants of the All Inclusive and Lunch Only options.

We’ll arrange healthy, enjoyable meals that will provide you with plenty of energy for riding. Vegetarian options are available just be sure to select the vegetarian choice at the time of registration.

Lunches are held at the end of your ride for the day. Back at headquarters you can kick back, enjoy something delicious, and share your stories from the day.

Registered participants wear a wristband and will be served one lunch meal per day.

Enjoy a leisurely meal at headquarters where you can share memories from the day’s fun and enjoy our special entertainment. See the dinner menus here…

Lunch Only Option Served June 22-26

Back by popular demand we offer a “lunch only” registration option at a special reduced cost. With this type of registration you’ll be served an enjoyable lunch on each day, Saturday through Wednesday. Lunch is served at the end of the ride each of those days. Vegetarians should choose the vegetarian option at the time of registration. Rest stops will be included with this Lunch Only option as well as with the all inclusive meals option.

You’ll also be our guest at the Friday Eat and Greet Party dinner.

Please note: Some of the towns we will be visiting this year are very small and may have very limited dinning options.  If you don’t plan on packing your own dinners you may want to consider including the all inclusive meals plan with your registration.  This will ensure you have dinner each night before you head out on the shuttle.  Sightseeing shuttles are included in your registration.  No additional bus pass is required to ride this shuttle, simply show the driver your wristband as you enter the bus.

Rest Stops Served

Each day you will have access to all the goodies you can eat and drink at our Rest Stops.  We will have a minimum of one rest stop every 15-20 miles.  On an average route there will be 2 rest stops. More Rest Stops are provided on longer routes.

New for this year, we will have a Premium Rest Stop on each day. At this super-duper stop you’ll get a special treat, something regional or some other catered food item that’s guaranteed to be tasty!

Food Vendors

Each year we invite food vendors to sell refreshments to you at headquarters. Delicious treats will be on site for purchase, from coffee to ice cream. Keep an eye on this page to see the list as it comes together.
