Hey Sparky,
I ride a similar, but shorter commute daily into london = 30 miles a day. At weekends i do the same, averaging around 200 miles a week.
Regarding food, i have a troughfull of porridge every morning with dried fruit mixed in and a normal lunch. Then tend to have a double portion at dinner time.
Muscles ached a fair bit over the first couple of weeks, but now its easy and really enjoyable. FYI im 6ft 2" and 13stone, have seen a huge loss in weight and more important fat within the last month of commuting
