Grey, good job and glad to hear you eat while riding. Nothing worse than a major Bonk when you still have 20 miles to the end of the ride. Sounds to me like you do a good job of keeping the fire stoked. Often times I don't feel hungry but then once I have eaten I have so much more energy and feel so much better I realize after the fact that it was a wise decision.

I am so glad to know this is normal! I was afraid I was messing up somewhere, and wondering where my body was getting energy for the days following a long ride if I wasn't interested in eating. I always have that fear it will turn on muscle even though there's still plenty of blubber to work off of.
