But regarding this part



again, we are talking about sugars ON THE BIKE. Glucose and insulin spikes are not really a concern when you eat simple carbs during intense exercise.

e.g.
My question/point - how do you know? The only way that sugar becomes energy, gets out of the blood into the muscle/organs is insulin. The more sugar you take, the more insulin is required. If not - it sits in your blood stream. How do you know how much insulin you are producing - on the bike?
