Uber N00B question

So I signed up for my first bike tour (actually second one, my first one is a tour de donut so it's more for fun.) Anyway, in the little welcome e-mail they said that the tour fee included "SAG services." I've seen this acronym before but the only meaning I know for it is Screen Actors Guild. Since I doubt George Clooney will be showing up; can anyone tell me what it really means? Thanks

George Clooney might show up, you never know. SAG stands for 'Support And Gear or "Support Aid Group". It can mean a couple things. On longer rides they will usually have SAG stations every 20 miles or so that will have snacks, water, etc. The other meaning is that they have a SAG wagon that will ride the course (usually later in the day) and pickup riders that have had mechanical issues, or simply can't continue for one reason or another.
