Good riding snacks?

[KSH]

Hey KnottedYet... are you a man... or are you woman married to a woman?

Just curious... as typically men stay away from... "Team ESTROGEN".

My wife, on the other hand, hardly ever wants to picnic as often as I do. She stays happy with just sports drink and eating maybe once to every 2 or 3 of my picnics.

I say fruit leather is good, like Fruit-to-go. Gu, Sharkies, the little packages of Fruit gummies that are so typical in children's lunchboxes. Pretzels. Granola bars. I particularly like Nature's Valley Crunchy bars. Of course gatorade.

KSH - I'm a woman married to a woman. As the saying goes "we are everywhere". She's a biker, too.

Wife, S.O., partner... it all means "spouse" in the end.

So could we use "DW" ?
I never figured out exactly what DH stands for:
dear husband
darned husband
dang husband
dea... no, wait, probably not...

Probably not designated hitter or Dennis Hopper...

I've seen a few women on here use "DP" (dear partner)

But yeah, don't see why we couldn't all use "DW"! Everybody join my team! How 'bout DPITA? (for those days when the dear spouse is being a Pain In The A$$)

DS is usually "dear son".

(I'm kinda likin' DPITA)

Knotted how about:
SOOTOG or Significant Other Of The Opposite Gender
SOOTSG or Significant Other Of The Same Gender

is DD the dear dog?

on the bike: Luna Bars, Cliff in fave flavors, I don't like the real sweet ones. On hard and or hilly rides I prefer raisins to Gu because I think they say with me longer but will bring Gu. Also like a small bag of "Spazzdog's secret gorp" if it's a hard ride, small bag with chopped up Power bars, M&Ms or other unmeltable chocolate, pretsels and or peanuts and nuts.

On the Cinderella ride I made special low fiber version of Spazzdog Gorp for Bikeless I mean Duckless I mean Duck on Wheels.

At rest stops I like bananas and find them a quick source of carbs and sugar. You know; time flies like an arrow, fruit flies like a banana Also like bagels with peanut butter...but potato?

But there's no one right way to eat on a bike tho some things may work more than others, I feel we train our stomachs as well as our legs. Before any big event I don't want to change my diet.

Regarding acronyms: My DGF (dear girlfriend) doesn't like the term "wife", so in deference to her I'll stick with GF or SO.

DD - dear dog! That's great! Of course here it's dear dachshund. Then there's DC, dang cat! The cat belongs to the GF, so you get the picture. After 10 years the cat has finally decided to like me. I'm not sure how I feel about this. He sits on my lap every morning while I sip coffee and browse the internet. Gets cat fur in my trackball.

This is so much more fun than working.

Regarding food:
I'll have to try Cliff bars again. Aren't the Luna bars gooey?? And what is GU? I haven't gotten this far in my research.
