I'll bite ( oops, sorry!);-)
Sounds rather posuer-ish to me for a one hour spin class. There are a lot of so called hard core folks out there that would disagree with me. One of our spin instructors really pushes some sort of drink (that she sells, of course) that we should really be drinking. Me? I just eat a healty carb breakfast and leave it at that. I figure if i'm ready for more food after class is over, I've timed it just right.
as for gu etc. I do always take cliff bars and gu packets. I only use the gu typically in the last half of some sort of epic ride, when I don't need more food, just that extra bit of energy for the last 5 miles. I may take a recovery drink ( cytomax) but I dilute it becasue full strength make me want to puke.
Most of my intown rides are >10 miles and a couple of hours. Once they get longer I do find I need to fuel regularly, and not always with food - this is where bars come in handy.
I get cliff bars by the case at Costco.
