Chocolate milk before, during, or after a ride would put me in bed for a couple of days. I really miss milk, and yogurt, and ice cream....*sigh*
If you can tolerate soy there is a brand of soy ice cream - Soy Delicious - up here that will make you forget ice cream was ever made with milk. Some of the flavors are a bit weird and I avoid the Cookies and Cream, but the Chocolate Velvet and the Vanilla are very good and a fairly un-guilty pleasure. It really is good - I've had other soy/rice based ice creams and they usually have a funky after taste, but this brand doesn't.
