I couldn't do this as a poll, so here goes. This should be fun.
What's the "perfect" cycling food, before during and after your rides?
What about beverages?
Here's my choices.
Food
Before: Peanut butter (or almond butter) and banana Sandwich (on whole wheat bread of course)
During: Nature Valley Chewy Granola bar (light and calorie rich)
After: Heaps of whole wheat pasta (with a tasty sauce of some sort.)
Beverages
Before: 12 Oz can of V-8 juice (can you say electrolites?)
During: Sports drink of some sort (poweraid or gatorade)
After: Lots of good old H20 (1.5 times amount of body weight lost to sweat)
