Just finished off my first long(er) ride. Did 70km in just under 3 hours. Went out with the One Aim cycling club from Valley Ridge to Bragg Creek. Decent ride and the weather got nice as we finished up.
Question for the long distance riders though on nutrition. I've been home for 4-5 hours and good lord am I tired and have a headache. We went out the 35km and I had nothing to eat. Stopped in BC and I grabbed a scone + apple juice. Made a big difference coming home. But how do you guys combat this fatigue (besides eating everything in sight) or is it just my body adjusting and it'll lessen over time. I typically drink a lot of water during the day so I dont think I'm dehydrated.
