    I may not post daily, but this challenge is motivating me to ride even when I don't want to. My motto is something is better than nothing as witnessed by my Friday ride.

    8/8 6.8 miles
    8/9 15 miles (my farthest ride this year)

    To all those folks that bike long distances what do you eat during the ride to keep your energy up (if anything at all)?

    It varies depending a lot on the distances. Anything under 30 miles, I really don't bring anything extra along. Between 30 to 60, I will carry a bag of sports beans and/or a clif bar--something that won't melt or get to messy in my back pocket. Rides above 60, I will usually put my handle bar bag on and carry extras of both and also grab a bite while I am riding. Supported rides, i will grab a banana or pickles any chance I get. Also to a point where I have learned I need to eat if I want to make it through a 100 miler without bonking. Post ride especially a long or hard ride is always some chocolate milk.

    Thanks for the input. I'm slowly building my endurance back to take longer rides (for me) as I managed to go 15 miles on both Saturday and Sunday.

    Forgot to post my rides:
    I did 30 miles over the weekend and 8.3 miles tonight as I got a late start.
