Fueling on long rides

[GuyP]

I found low GI seed loaf, peanut butter and syrup good for anything over 150Km and up to about 400Km in a 'sitting', from which mileage onwards you probably need more in the form of real food! Don't forget that hydration is critical because you can't eat if you're dehydrated! Lesser distances can probably do with a few real food energy bars.

 

Race nutrition is something else though, something I'm not competent to comment on.

WHAT?!! 400km! Are you on a motorbike?
