    Good brevet food? Or lots of sodium?

    Really good brevet food!

    I did a 600k this weekend and partook of:

    convenience store breakfast burrito
    fried plantains
    minestrone soup (dying for cup-o-noodles but they didn't have any)
    Taco bell chicken burrito
    2 twinkies
    among other things.

    My sister took a look at a photo I posted of the food I carry in my handle bar bag and asked if the only reason I ride I so I can eat all that cr@p.

    ETA: So what brevet did you do?

    You ladies pretty much have it nailed! (I'm so transparent... )

    MP: Desert River Randonneurs Extended Yakima River 400K. Central Washington state. Richland to Ellensberg & back via the Yakima River Canyon.

    I would like to point out that the 1st 200 miles were filled with all sorts of nutritious things that I had in my trunk bag. But after 200 miles, I was swayed by the siren song of warm salty carbs. The McDonald's Drive-thru was remarkably busy at 2:30am...

    I'll post some pictures!
