Good day everybody!

I recently made an attempt to bike home from work...which takes 50 minutes to drive 78 Km down the highway!

I did pretty good considering, I made it 60 km in 3 hours, (first 27 were all uphill), going along the back roads. I figured the total distance would have been around 90 km.

My problem was, I hit the wall at 50K. I know I didn't plan quite right ( I had to go before I lost my nerve). I have done greater distances in the past. I had been hoping to find a store en route to refill on water, but no, I ran dry at 35km.

What I am actually wondering, is what light weight-hi energy/protein I could carry with me to sustain the energy all the way home?

Any input would be wonderful, thanks!

unless you are allergic to them nuts (not peanuts or cashews) can be a choice..and they keep well too..just a thought

How about a low-carb bar or shake? I know some have "hidden" carbs but I'm sure some don't. Or maybe just bring some more water next time?
