Looking at healthy recipes to take on bike rides. I'm surprised by the number of recipes that call for nuts. When you look at GU etc. they are all carbs. I was thinking of making something with simple and complex carbs, rice balls etc.
Do I really want to digest fat on a ride? I don't do very long rides, am working up to 56 miles.
Thanks,

I can't help ya much. I fancy PB&J or ham sandwiches if I'm going to need lunch. They hold up OK in my jersey pockets. Anything close to 50 and I will treat myself to a Salted Nut Roll....or the inferior Payday because SNR's are hard to find around here. And if I go over 70 miles, I will allow myself a rollerdog from a gas station. But only if I've gone 50 and am 20 miles from home...so I can't cheat.
I know I'm doing it all wrong. I never set out to do it right! |
