Just spent four days in the Pyrenees - had forgotten how little you actually need to eat for 4-6h riding/day. Didn't have the same access to food as I do at home/work so no huge pasta pyramids before or fried tofu / halloumi / paneer "I need it for the protein" recovery meals after.
Coming back to a long week at work (60h at a desk), I realise my problem is how to deal with very easy access to food vs a real struggle to squeeze more than my usual amount of activity into the day. There was free pizza and cake on Friday, but no leave-at-5-and-go-training option.
