Not being overly reliant upon carbs is not a go fast thing.
It is more like a not puking kind of thing.
How many Randos and long distance riders get nausea, GI issues, reflux, and outright throwing up. Very common.
I don't consider nausea to be fun.
The only times I've had problems with nausea were related to Gatorade/water issues. Chowing down on whatever- no problems there. And nausea seems to be fairly uncommon as far as I can tell.
