I could do 25 miles fasted seven days a week. I don't eat anything on rides under 50 miles. I did this month's Strava Metric Challenge on a single bottle of water.
And I eat a whole lot. I'm not thin and I love food. I'm eating chorizo tacos while I type this. Some rides make me hungry, some rides don't. But food is definitely not overrated.
If not for food, what is the point of any of this?
