Hi all,
Just wondering how people fuel their rides before they go out.
Went out last night straight after work, and since I am trying to lose a bit of weight I didn't eat anything before I went. The result was I felt awful all the way and had no energy. :-(
If I go out later in the evening after having had my dinner I am ok. This is fine in an ideal world but family and work commitments mean I have to take the the opportunity to get out when it arises, often on the spur of the moment.
So I guess the question is how can I fuel a spur of the moment ride without loading up on too many calories (that sounds a bit contradictory:-$).
Cheers.
