Hungry Sam Poll!

Hungry Sam in experiences


As you all know, I eat (somewhat) healthfully. I bake instead of fry, I use bison instead of beef (sometimes), and I try to limit my caffeine intake. But before epic bike rides, I get to carbo load.

Epic bike rides like the 100 km ride I'm doing this Saturday (June 11) to benefit the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. NMSS is a wonderful organization that invests in promising MS cure research but also helps provide supports and services for those already living with MS and Bike MS is one of their premier fundraisers.

I'm riding because I love cycling, because the Maryland Eastern Shore area is supposed to be beautiful, but also because I have a personal connection to MS that strengthens my resolve and provides the impetus for 62.4 miles of hard cycling. If you're interested in helping to sponsor my ride and fight MS, as I know many of my readers already have, here is a link to my donation page.

But here's where the poll comes in: CARBO LOADING.

If I'm going to bike that far, you'd better be sure I'm going to eat my weight in total junk the day before (and let's not kid around, probably the day after, too). So: tell me in the comments section what/where I should eat before or after my ride!

THE LIST GOES ON AND ON. But for this to work, I need YOU to tell me: What should my horrible/delicious treat to myself be?

I'll post about the results, and obviously a picture of the food. Comment away!
