Every 6 days I\u2019m paired with another rider to take care of the food for the day.&nbsp; That means getting to the destination by 4pm and riding in the van to a grocery store.&nbsp; There we purchase the supplies to make dinner,breakfast the next  morning, as well as food for each rider to pack a lunch for the road.&nbsp; Breakfast and lunch are pretty normal &#8211; cereal, yogurt etc. for breakfast and sandwiches or wraps for lunch.&nbsp; Dinners are up to the imagination of the cooks &#8211; and the limitations of the store.&nbsp; A three burner gas stove and lots of pots and pans are at our disposal.&nbsp; I\u2019ll share a few meal examples later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/104-128-66-57.cloud-xip.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/PXL_20230619_145207916-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-697\" width=\"512\" height=\"288\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lizventure.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/PXL_20230619_145207916-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/lizventure.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/PXL_20230619_145207916-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lizventure.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/PXL_20230619_145207916-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lizventure.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/PXL_20230619_145207916-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/lizventure.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/PXL_20230619_145207916-2048x1152.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Note: Dan is paraphrasing excerpts from Liz&#8217;s ride journal.
