My question is what does dehydration feel like. I am sure I was dehydrated but want to fix that next time I go out. I beleive its what I am not drinking enough of prior to riding.

Don't think it was dehydration. Usually you get headaches when you are dehydrated. If your blood sugar drops you can feel light headed, dizzy like you are going to pass out. Are you diabetic? Might want to go see a doctor if it becomes a frequent occurrence.
