Last weekend's ride was not anything "epic", or vastly long & hard, just the usual 21 miles in a local park...
'Bout 4 or 5 miles before the end whille "Exploring" a trail we never took I started feeling a bit bonked, don't know if this was because we had to hike-a-bike a little ways or what, but I felt like I was getting weak quickly. It was a warm day but I was well hydrated (watered the bushes a few times), the last two miles climbing out I was exhausted, couldn't believe it! I've rode a few miles longer & never felt like this!
Took the rest of the day eating & drinking lot's of different juices to recover!
So what was my body missing?
