For the north down being such a big run (1000 entries) it might be worth taking whatever you find works for you,with you. Theres no guarantee that A)the feed stop will have anything left or B)have what you've been training on.
I usually plan a stop in a long ride so usually have no shortage of potential food. I've had everything from scones to pancakes ,flapjack pieces to jelly babie, energy bars to energy gels.
The most important thing is use your training miles to figure it all out. What you like,the quantity and frequency. I have a time alert set on my garmin as a reminder to eat and drink.
ps: Im probably doing it too![]()
I've never eaten on a ride or felt the need. Been out for 4 hrs also (100km) but usual ride is about 44 miles.
