i stand by my thoughts that the sag fare at this ride leaves a lot to be desired IMHO.....
it's just not exciting.... gorge yourself at the sag stop kinda good eats like other rides have!they don't list all the yummy deserts for lunch.... i hope they have them again this year... that was truly the best part of the food stops!

what i remember most (other than the yummy deserts at lunch) was clif bars.... tons of clif bars... at the stops.... yuck! i mean i like clif bars... but one or two MAX is all i can handle on a ride.... i want JUNK!
to me... centuries are all about gorging on the junk i never buy to eat at home! and they don't have anything that interests me in that department! i may have to buy a box of rice krispie treats and bring then along! lol!
i also understant that everyone is different in what they want to eat.... i'm a junk food eater on centuries.... others don't eat at all... and other actually like the stuff listed above! for me... BRING ON THE JUNK!
