[RC] Away lunch stops (was: Sponge Leash - Southern California to theEast Coast) - Diane Trefethen

Oh yeah - going to a "Terry Ride" will spoil you big time. I mean, don't *all* RMs provide water (drinking and sponging), sponges, hay (2 - 3 kinds), soaked beet pulp, bran mash, people water, gatorade, fruit, donut holes, sandwich fixings, chips and drinks at the lunch stop, and folks running around with serving trays at the out vet checks? They *don't* ??? <gasp>

As a Northern California rider, I have seen hay at almost all away checks and carrots at most, but not much for riders other than water and/or lemonade or tea, certainly not LUNCH - until the Cooley Ranch Ride. They had pre-made sandwiches, fixings to make your own, cookies, drinks, candy/energy bars, and I heard homemade brownies but I didn't know to look for them :( Boy was that a real treat for someone without crew. For a lunch stop in camp, you can go to your rig and fix something but away? It was a life saver! Thank you Cynthia and Forrest!
