I'm not talking about toting BLTs in my jersey pocket. From home, I pack a banana and/or granola bar (that don't have a chocolate coating). If it's 90+ mile ride, I'll usually stop at a convenience...

I'll never know - I wouldn't have the will to choke down 8 of 'em in the first place.

While this is all well and good, the "event" that we're talking about is not a marathon, but a 45 mile ride at a level that Strava pegs as a ~1000 calorie effort (flat and ~15mph, so the estimate is...

This reminds me, we'll be staying in Arlington for a few days during the holiday trip. Who knows if I'll be able to get any rides in - the family will have a museum itinerary, I'm sure - but I'll be...
