I'm doing it currently for weight loss, but not sure if I will maintain it once I'm doing the longer stuff from April onwards.

I wouldn't race on any 'keto' or 'fat adaptation' diets. They just don't work when performance is required above and beyond the weight loss they might offer.
Most of the fat-adapted anecdotes are bullshit too - look at their diets and there's tonnes of carbs in them. Rice and a rugby team spring to mind.

Might work for weight loss but not good for performance.
I still plan on being quick (for me) in shorter stuff. Don't want to be beaten at a sprint finish by a girl or anything ;)
