I need about 2 hours to let that meal settle before I push off, otherwise I feel sluggish, but it gets me through 100 miles with energy to spare.

If it's a particularly long ride and I need to get out the door before 6 am I will usually load up on carbs the night before, in which case I will eat a lot more than a bowl of oats and an English muffin.
