Had a bit of a debate over the weekend regarding this topic. We've been doing 3-5 hour rides lately, ride-up, ride down, repeat. I usually don't eat much before the ride as it makes me feel ill; acid reflux, bloated stomach feeling, etc. So. I usually bring a few pack of Gu, maybe a piece of fruit and/or a power bar and LOTS of water. Would it make a noticeable diff. if I ate someting more substantial earlier, before the ride, and if so, what should I be eating?
Thanks....
