Another hot, humid, sticky day to be out pedaling but our potatoes are troopers. We have 9 more who finished up today, only 12 days in. That brings our total to 61 official taters with 155 on the road. Our DUD SPUDS in training total 26. Times a wastin’.
Shout out to our newest taters to finish:
Spudly went for an early morning ride with Tot Louie and earned magnet #6 with 114.60 miles. Billy Spud also hit the 100 mile mark today at 114.00 miles – Woot!, he says. MelaTater checks in with 109.50 miles and I Yam California Dreamin’ is right on her heels with 109.04 miles. Finishing together are Golly D Tater and Mot Tot, both with 104.60 miles. Bar Fry had a “Great experience” finishing her Couch Potato with 101.57 miles. Haus of Spuds is in just a mile over with 101.00 miles and right behind is Christmas Potato at 100.80 miles.
Congratulations goes out to our most recent official taters. Magnets all around.
Potato Happenings
Chip-N-Dale is pedaling around Ireland and the Kilkee Cliffs while Rain or Shine Tater is also spinning – but while teaching class, the second of the week with 12 students. Need potato miles? Go see him!
Captain Spud wants to know who our oldest tater is – he’s 69. Anyone want to fess up? I know but haven’t told.
Administrivia
With all of this pedaling, our potatoes have totaled 13,723.42 miles. Only 16,276.58 miles left to meet that “extra challenge” I threw out there.
Arrrgggg – I lost two potato names somewhere. I know I had them in there. Fear not, I shall get them entered again!

Happy Pedaling,

I bet I know how old our oldest spud is, but it’s not for me to tell. (But the one I know has Captain Spud beat by over a decade…and he/she is a BEAST!)

I am probably not the potato rider that is a decade older one mentioned in yesterdays post but at 78.5 years old and I am riding the tour for the first time. I have had grandkids here all week so no miles but they leave tomorrow and back on the chase go I.
My husband has finished his 6th already and I sit at 20+. I decided that this year to join the Tour would give it a go and made a personal goal of 45 miles (my birth year). If I make it 75 next year 😄
