Ride Fast, Eat Trash (Gas Station Nutrition)

I always get a water, a Lemon-Lime Gatorade (both to refill bottles), and then either a Coke or A&W Rootbeer to drink while I’m there. If I reach for something like salty chips then I’m almost certainly shattered and am just barely making it home.

EDIT: conext for those who might not know, he just came 6th in the very prestigious Paris-Nice stage race.

I did the Southeast Gravel Battle of Sumter Forest on Saturday and I stopped to get gas on the way down.

There was a woman cooking biscuits in the back and I had an amazing Country Fried Steak Biscuit with a Mango Juice Monster and it was perfect as a pre-race fueling.

Just love the ‘nothing to see here’ style of this :joy:

Amazing haha. Do you think they let him put it on the corporate card?

Hell yeah, Twizzlers rule.

Not quite lol. However, I’d like to be referred to as a garbage eating animal from now on.

Well Chat GPT can be off. I’ll carry on eating junk and being happy to do so.

I’m currently watching “Dark” on Netflix and have learned that Twix used to be called “Raider” in parts of Europe. I would way rather “fuel” with RAIDER than with Twix.

I think that was one of the slogans back in the 80s :+1:

For a long, low intensity ride gas station fried chicken strips are awesome

For quick sugar, fig newtons, hostess fruit pie

anything chocolate and caramel like the milky way caramel

Worst thing I did was an ice cream on a hot day. Stomach wasn’t processing the dairy well

“Live fast, eat trash socks”

Not sure I ever want to reach the point where I’d consider eating socks… :rofl:

Also that sounds like a warning. Eat trash, and live fast…
