I revisited my sports nutritionist (via email) yesterday regarding calorie targets on long ride days now that my rides are getting longer. Net calories have once again entered the picture - but only on long-ride days. I am keeping the same targets for all other days, and any calories I consume right before, during, or in the first hour after a long ride won't count. It will be like they don't exist.
So back to a minimum net calorie target of 1,300 on long ride days, which is what I've used in the past and can be quite challenging to hit. That might be a little easier now that I've had to change my diet in order to meet the higher caloric intake I need.

And we're not even going to places that I consider to have halfway decent cheesesteaks.
