Diet

Jeez, this thread was an entertaining if futile read this morning! Dan, this was really helpful.

Possibly the best thread I've read in a while, my 2p worth...

During 100mile ride at the weekend I ate:
2 bananas
1 packet of fig roles (McVites accept no substitute) swear by these.
Cake stop 1 Tiffin Cake and coffee
Cake stop 2 apple pie with custard and more coffee
Flapjack
Jelly beans

Drinks wise I tend to opt for a half/half 100% OJ and water with 1tsp of salt in each bottle for training rides. I’m not a fan of the sports energy drinks however I can stomach and use SiS ones occasionally in long Sportives where I tend to get over excited and ride above my normal pace.

Post ride I tend to mostly eat meat and fishies. Sorry MG that’s probably not helpful.
