Pete, +1 for the post-ride pasta meal. At the Italy bike week this spring, the hotel served a great pasta buffet for returning riders mid-afternoon. We got back from the rides by 2 pm, just enough time to shower, change and head for the pasta, salad and desserts.

After eating, there was time to hit the hot mineral spa, a cold dip in the pool, then a nap back in the room before Campari time, dinner at 8 with a few glasses of wine, then early bedtime. A great routine for daily recovery....but not weight loss

Ah the good life. You cannot have everything, you know. But what you had that week does not sound half bad...
