Hi all.

I'm new here.

I have cycled for just over two years. Even while taking off seven months worth of time, I've clocked in 7,700 miles.

Recently, I had discovered that I was not eating enough after cycling. I would often get light-headed or feel naucious.

I am a half-century cyclist. I do this on a regular basis (roughly 4 or 5 out of 7 days a week).

I average 18 mph, and I go for about.. 2 hours and 45 minutes.

About me: I am seventeen, weigh roughly 135 pounds, and ride mostly flat land.

I figured that I should eat about 3,000 calories for cycling, and get about 60g protein. Is this right, or should I cut back?

I also figured I burn roughly 1,600 calories. Is that correct?
