Best quick carbs for long rides?
After finishing my first Brevet (200k) I realized that packing 10-12hours worth of gels, jellies,bars, dates and bananas wasn't such a bright idea. Starting out with 2 pounds of food, not to mention the bulk of such a supply, is not on the agenda for the next ride.
Assuming that there are numerous places to stop and get food on a given brevet route, I'm curious to know what types of treats and extravagances long distance cyclists like to pick up along the way over the course of 200k+ rides.
Thanks!
