Ridecamp: Re: [RC] Hungry newbie.

While riding, I use GU.  It lifts my energy level very quickly.  At the
typical 1-hour stop, I eat whatever my stomach tells me it can handle, but
one favorite is fruit-flavored yogurt.  It is easily digestible.  Fruit is
also good.  I eat things such as GU on rides when I would never touch it
under ordinary circumstances.  Same with electrolyte drinks.  When the body
is stressed, I find it tells me what I should be eating and drinking.
