It also sounds like you're not taking in enough fluids. Are you drinking during the day And during the ride? A down and dirty way to tell if you're taking in enough fluids is your urine should be very pale to colourless. Some people just flush when they exercise, but the drinking a big glass of water and then napping coupled with the queasiness almost sounds like dehydration. You might try an electrolyte drink - if you're being careful with your diet there is a sugar-free, vegan mix called Electro-Mix made by the same people that make EmerGenC. You should be able to find it at any health food store. A good rule of thumb someone here taught me was about a bottle of fluid an hour. So in your case if you're taking 54 mins for your ride, you should be just about out of water when you get home.

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming: "Yeah Baby! What a Ride!"
