First off, I know nothing about BBQ Competitions. The only one I've ever been to is Banjo B'Que in Augusta, which is a BBQ Comp / Bluegrass festival.
I was recently elected to an officer position for the local mountain bike club and we're kicking around ideas to raise some funds and I thought a Bikes & Que festival would be fun. Here's how I envision it:
Basically I think this would be a fun event that would draw a good size and very diverse crowd. And it should help raise some funds for the MTB club too.
So. Thoughts? Where would we look to find someone to run the contest? KCBC folks I assume?

- Event would be held on private property - no idea how that affects health code rules/regulations/etc
- Partner with someone who knows and can run the BBQ Competition
- Event is open to the public. A $X entry fee gets you in
- BBQ teams can sell food
- Throughout the day there will be bike games for folks of all ages (including kids), supported/guided trail rides of various length/difficulty, and at some point a race. No charge for the bike games/trail rides, but racers will have to pay to race.
