There is no consistent standard amongst feed controls:
- Some organisers charge for food in addition to your fee, though the majority are 'free'.
- Food may consist of anything from a few measly biscuits to a lavish affair. The Forest of Dean Classic are mean enough to cut their bananas in half!
- Many will provide water and sometimes energy drinks.
- If you are a lantern rouge, expect controls to have exhausted their supplies.
In essence, take your own back up supplies as not all events can be relied upon - which then begs further questions. Try to find out from riders what last year's event was like and they may be able to give you some idea.
