It depends. Some rides I will only drink water. Some rides I will drink stupidly strong concentrations of Go. I can get away with very little for quite a while but since fueling for 24hrs became an issue I've had to force myself to eat and drink a lot more. For now, if I were you I'd just make sure I had a banana and flapjack and maybe test some of the energy drink options. If you buy the smaller packs initially you can see if you actually like them. Some people hate Go. Some people hate High5. It's quite personal. And as fussball says, you should be eating and drinking before you need it.
