Pumpkin Pie Ride.
Because pumpkin pie tastes better.

That's what I was thinking.
Based on the foods involved...I'd go for the pie!

I did the Pumpkin Pie Ride last year (if you're talking about the one in Ottawa). I really enjoyed it. I ended up coming the day before and spending the night in Ottawa. It was a nice little town and everyone was very friendly.

I had also considered doing the Apple Cider, but with the never-ending road construction around the Chicago area, I opted for the nice relaxing drive out in the country instead.

They had good food at the rest stops. One even had home-made potato soup .... and the pie at the end was quite yummy.

If I wasn't doing a duathlon that day, I would definitely have signed up for it again.

I'll be doing Apple Cider since it's very close to where I live. I'd be interested in meeting fellow TE people. PM me if interested. I'll be wearing my new Amici Veloci jersey!
