A quick question....
I did not eat anything during the ride but I did drink plenty of water.
30 years?? What took you so long?
Rules for cycling:
1. Drink before you're thirsty.
2. Eat before you're hungry.
3. Rest before you're tired.
Eat something every 15-20 miles. Not a meal. Something like a Hammer gel or energy bar.
