Don't really mean it as Mountain biking is great. Just wish I had the energy to do it now.

But back to bonking- There are always telltale signs that it is about to come on. One of which is exactly as Weak link noted and compared to a car running out of fuel. It is not pleasant but this is only the first sign. Although I do not carry food with me- In the wedge is a Gel pack for those occasions if I get the warning that a cafe stop is required.
