I am trying to decide whether the meal plan is the way to go or to head into town. One worry is that I won't be back in time to get the meal, I am not sure how late they are open. Also, thought it would be fun to go into town, though not sure how tired I will be. The mileage is more than I am use to doing on my bike trips. Any thoughts from people who have done this before. One bike ride I went on, the meal plan was included and the food was excellent. Another one I went on, food was just ok.
Also, do the shuttles run throughout the afternoon and night?
I've done this ride a number of times. Much prefer going in to town for dinner. You can always find somewhere to get something for breakfast in the morning. Or just ride to the first rest stop and snack there. Not sure how the Covid-19 will change shuttles to the restaurants.
