It is very tempting to make pit stops to buy food and snacks, since cycling can really make you hungry and thirsty. This is more emphasized when the food is sold just on the side of the road and you can see the delicious snacks that the vendors are selling. If I was with you and your group, I would definitely not hesitate to stop and eat some boiled corn, especially when I can smell its yummy aroma. I remember a time when I was also with a group and we also stopped for some snacks, but these were sweet foods. We stopped by and ate some ice cream and cotton candy, but the difference is that we were already finished with our route and we really planned to have a snack after we finished our trip. It is so satisfying to reward yourself with food after doing an exercise like cycling, because you are not guilty of the calorie intake.
