what's the best way to get energy right before a ride? My wife rides home from work (11 miles). It's about 5 hours after lunch, so much of her energy is already depleted. What should she eat before hitting the road after work? We picked up a few of the energy bars and a tube to gu to try. What works best?

I've heard that certain fruits are great for quick energy too.

lol like the sig a lot there...it's different for everyone. just try out different things and see what works best for her. try eating at different time intervals. the closer to your ride the lighter you want to eat.
