The foods must be ;
Healthy
Low fat
Low sugar
Low carbs

Did a 45km ride last night that included Mt Lofty via Greenhill Rd with a total of 760m of climbing in the end.JV911 wrote:jump on the mag trainerMichaelB wrote:can anyone recommend some good staples to keep me going to the wee small hours
After the milk/milk powder/banana shake (as suggested by WombatK), had a lightish dinner (Brie & Ham on a Sourdough roll, fell asleep for a bit, watched the first cobbles, scoffed a fingerbun (no butter) which was a leftover from kids party during the day, but then went to bed.
Couldn't stay awake, but will watch the cobble carnage tonight

There was plenty of junk food available, but was a bit tired from the ride, so missed out most of it (thankfully)BrisVegas wrote:so, a bag of Tomato Sauce flavoured Samboys is no good then???
Used to love the "Full Monty" flavoured chips though .....
