Yep good luck brave forumengers.
I'm on my way sw in order to ride both Devon coasts tomorrow. I'll be riding ~ 200k which usually ok with. Eating fish and/or chips for 'lunch' on an audax... I'm not so sure about. We'll see.
The last 200k I did on the usual cakes and flapjacks diet and I experienced a short, deep bonk at around 170kms - after which a fairly constant feed of gels was necessary to carry on at a good pace. I'd rather not go there again.
Maybe tartar sauce saches will get me through.
