We have found for long 100 mile bike rides in which we are riding for a good placing or time we need to eat every half hour from the start of the race or we will bonk. It has also taken us a while to find the correct combo of food and drink for us. Some products work and some don't. Its different for everyone.
She does pretty good with eating before a ride, especially a longer specialty type ride. Her breakfast was good, she snacked at sags, and she hydrated starting the day before. Rest can always be better but wasn't to bad for a road trip. Anything is possible, won't rule it out.
