Any Plant Based riders doing this? If so I would love to meet up. Especially for going out to eat.
I am plant-based. I eat out after the rides given the limited selection on the meal plan. I find the restaurant options vary in the different towns, so flexibility and patience come in handy. I am willing to connect on this years ride.
Yep, plant based but appreciate that living in NC brings about a challenge when it comes to eating clean. More than happy to hook up on the ride. G.
I have only done this ride plant based. I have completed it several times since 2012. Yes, there are challenges. Is it impossible? Heavens NO!
Great Italian/Mexican/Thai etc, ...you would be amazed at how many options you will find in the middle of BBQ/FriedChicken/Seafood Country that is NC.
I think the options in 2021 are greatly improved from the 2012(Lots of PBJs) version that I rode.
The awareness by the general public has improved about people who do not prefer dairy, and do not eat meat.
Most Food Trucks have a veggie and non dairy option.
And, there are the meat heads ... I have had the "bad" experience with the food vendors?!? They do not get my $$$ :)))
Have fun and always look for the hidden deals!
There are always Fruit and Veg treats along the ride.
I would love to see mini v8's instead of mini cokes by NCsports
NCSports really do a great job. This is an awesome ride.
I will be riding in my No Meat Athlete Jersey on one of the days.
Peace, Plants, Namaste!
