By now you know the best foods for you; before, during and after. By the day of the ride you should be well rested and hydrated, have your fave pre-ride meal. If you have foods you need to eat on long rides or do better with, or have many that you can't do pack some of your fave snacks.

Can use layers also; jersey, arm skins, vest and add and remove as the weather, pace and overheating dictate.
