On our 9th ride on the American River Parkway<\/strong><\/a> (ARP) from the beautiful Larkspur Landing hotel<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0 (NBG riders can save 20% on a room HERE<\/strong><\/a>) where Whole Foods Folsom<\/strong><\/a> will be set up to send us off with delicious continental breakfast foods, we’ll pedal bicycle heaven for 14 miles before we fuel up again at another \u00a0Whole Foods Market, their Sacramento store<\/strong><\/a>. A one mile detour, they will make our diversion more than worth it. <\/span><\/p>\n

Here on an Ireland Saturday, I just got word from their Marketing Team Leader that not only will they refresh us with ample amounts of energy food and drink in their handsome outdoor seating area, but they will make sure we are fed even when our ride just about reaches it end in Old Town Sacramento<\/a>,<\/strong>\u00a0ten miles away. Toward that end, we will enjoy the picnic lunch they will send us\u00a0(the first 30 of us who commit to this amazing ride) off with at peaceful Discovery Park<\/strong> where the American River meets the Sacramento River.<\/span><\/p>\n

And if that’s not enough they are looking into the possibility of having a kombucha truck at their store for our cyclists! With ice cold \u00a0kombucha on tap, no less. This is also \u00a0exciting news because hydration is the name of the game on the ARP. \u00a0I hope they can make this happen because I want all my American friends to experience this truly refreshing drink. \u00a0Here in Ireland, kombucha is a relative unknown – the only time \u00a0I get to enjoy it is when I come back to the States for our annual\u00a0Mayors’ Rides.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
