Tend to eat loads when I'm done. Depleted ranks of whatever. Think I'll take the Mrs out for a Italian tonight to stock up.

    More cafe stops are needed clearly.

    I struggle with that. I just want to push on and get faster and increase distances. If I need to stop it's to wee or just a 2 minute breather before putting the hammers down again.

    Are you eating food and drinking properly on the bike? I used to do the same but attending a training camp last week taught me about nutrition on the bike also....

    bodies need fuel just like cars

    if you dont do it right, then "push on and get faster and increase distances" will just hurt
