I'm still new to this riding thing, so I hope this question doesn't sound odd. Pretty often, in the middle of my ride (30 min in), I get really queasy like I'm going to throw up . One time I had eaten lunch about 30 minutes before we went out, but last night, I rode before dinner and only had a snack of peanuts, dried apricots and a V-8 so I wouldn't be starving during our ride. The queasy feeling is HORRIBLE! When I got home, I basically drank a full glass of water and then passed out on the bed for 15 minutes, and then I was fine.

I think I might be getting overheated because I am so out of shape. Also, I have rosacea and my face turns beet red when I ride. If anyone has any advice, I'd sure appreciate it. Maybe I should just eat apples or carrots and water before a ride? I need to figure out what to eat before a night ride, because that's the time that I am most likely going to be riding during the week, after work but before dinner.
