What's a long ride, and at what pace?

200 miles over 32hrs.had a few hrs waiting for the ferry and a 4hr crossing. 5000ft of climbing. Just a cat nap on the ferry.

Just the body craving energy, probably a natural enough reaction.

Yes.

Like @User9609 , I'm constantly hungry. I put it down to the amount of cycling I do everyday. I'm akin to a human Hoover when it comes to food.
