Bike Writer, that is really a helpful article for me and helps me to have an idea of what, when and how. I think ultimately it is about what works for the individual but it's good to start somewhere.

Yes, there are some rules of thumb and tips about what kind of nutrition and fuel is the most efficient but it does come down to individual preference and tolerance. Some people have no problem with digesting something substantial and others can only handle liquids or semi solids. To each their own! Once you find what works for you, keep it up.
