The best post-ride food is probably rice. It's turned into glycogen efficiently, but don't forget to add some protein. My favorite type of rice is sushi rice. My least favorite type of rice is the acronym: Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation. The latter is the most common set of instructions from my orthopedist. The former is just delicious.
It's Spring Break, and I completed all of my work early. I marked mid-terms and lab reports, and I drafted letters of recommendation so that I could catch up on some quality time with my bike. My first ride was a "surprise" century; it just sort of happened. I followed that up the next day with a mellow 80-miler.
So, here I am typing with rice, and not the kind I like... It does give me a chance to glue tubular tires (i.e., watch glue dry) and add some photos (see next post).
Ride safely and happy trails.
