 telling me you don't want a banquet??? Or if you do....you want no meat??
 Ok....I need some ideas here....e-mail me privately so I can do what you the
 riders want. This is your NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP!! Thanks, Diane Fruth >>

Being among the 90+% who are NOT vegetarians, I WANT MY MEAT!!  But--the nice 
thing about a buffet-style banquet is that the menu can be such that a 
vegetarian can skip the meat and still get a decent meal.

PS:  I'm with Nancy--I like no-frills rides where there is a food wagon where 
I can buy food if I want it, but don't have to if I don't want it.  And if 
there is no food wagon, I can bring what I want.  Potlucks are great--no 
charge, voluntary, and usually a good variety--and I always can bring 
something that I know I can eat, and just more of it, as David said.  I'm not 
a vegetarian, but I DO have food allergies--they don't cause me to keel over 
from anaphylaxis or anything, but they DO make me either itch or have 
diarrhea, neither of which is pleasant when riding...
