Food when cycling

What good is best when cycling? I say it depends on the distance. On a short club ride foe few hours and often fast carbohydrates are great and good to have 2 water bottles 1 with water and 1 with electrolyte like Gatorade. You can use this system even on a century ride. But on double century or day after day touring you can not use this carb diet. On long rides you deed solid food rich of proteins and even fats. Carbs are ok too but in lower quantities. Steaks. Full English breakfasts are great. Muscle milk is ok too but I prefer natural foods.


From apalacicola to Perry and the schedule after that

Next day after apalacicola I did a 60 miler to clavfordsville Florida to the Magnusson hotel and resort . it is a golf luxury resort and different quality than other hotels in this trip.I managed to clean my clothes there. Much needed.apalacicola and the small towns next to it are known for fishing and specially oysters. You can get as much oysters as you like. Lot of restaurants in this area. The part between clavfordsville and Perry is totally differrent area. It is mostly forest and the map told me there is no fooddstop the whole 60 miles to Perry. Therefore I needed to carry food and drinks with me.when I was 40 miles in the ride I saw a small gas station that were not in the maps. I went in got some coffee and few minutes after the cyclists from California stopped there too. We spoke to each other for awhile before heading to Perry. Perry and the area around it is known for timber. There are big forests there and most of people work in that industry. I will stop in Perry for 2 nights and then continue South to Gainesville and mt Dora to Orlando and from there to cocoa beach and to Miami. The speed depends on rest days And weather. my plan is taking a rest day in my favorite training hotel in ft pierce
