I do have some form for 24hr events so I'm not going into the event 'duration' blind.
I'll be taking some of the stuff I normally eat for sure but I'm definitely trying other random foods (they're doing pancakes man!). Again, not like this kind of thing has stopped me before :) I'm also quite able to eat nothing but sugary food for 24hrs, but since this is a "fun" event I'll be mixing it up anyway because it's not performance I'm after, it's just completion.
Thanks for the info. I guess I was after more MTB specific stuff I was looking for but there's probably not that much cross over with people doing road and MTB 24hrs.
Not having a powermeter will probably mess with my head. I might wear a HR monitor for shits and giggles. Trying to decide if I'll use roadie kit or MTB shy shorts. I could just wear a skinsuit for the LOLs (and it'd keep mud out of my arse crack).
I crash when I'm fresh so I doubt there'll be much difference. I look forward to finding out though. I just hope it's not another collarbone. I can't face drinking all that Belgian beer with my left hand...
