I know you are just being a smartass, but I have to be honest, when I saw this fellows question, similar thoughts were in my head.

bottom line, Sen is to go with what works best for you. There is no way in heck I could ride without a good breakfast and snacks in between a properly sized lunch and end of day supper, I suspect this is more the average, but for you it really comes down to listening to your body and seeing what makes you feel best for that given day (as how you feel that particular day, wind, hills etc etc all affect how much energy you need).

and those folks who do events like that transam thing are pretty bonkers, but hey, it keeps them out of the pool halls (translation--they are nuts but hey, good on them if that is their thing).
