I'm with V.

(I have also banned out SAG guy from bringing donuts before the Death Ride training rides. ). If I were riding with you, I'd do coffee and oatmeal or something in the car. Sports drink on the road. Maybe a dried banana part way or something. We've got a guy on our team who loves pastries and sticky buns during rides - I simply can't do those while I am riding.

I do love the soup at the Bovine bakery though! V you really should give that a shot sometime.
