White Castle burgers are piss-poor cycling fuel...

[BiggJawn]

I had belly grenades for Sunday Brunch (it's a father's day tradition) then tried to go for a 20-miler.

Worst. Performance. Ever.

Average of 10 MPH and I was out of steam before 10 miles. Then again, maybe the hills had something to do with it? I hit 6 of our peculiar creekbed gullys and only had to walk up 2 of 'em.
And one of 'em I hit 39 MPH going over the creek at the bottom...,WooHoo! Lucky me the road was decent!

1. Geez...I know what you mean.

I sincerely believe that if you took every White Castle burger ever consumed by Mankind and converted them into pure energy, you wouldn't have enough power to run a flashlight. :)

2. I think they should be classified as Hors D'oeuvres

As in like when you go to a party and you fill up on 3 plates of hors d'oeuvres and after you leave you head for the drive-through because they left you feeling more empty than Chinese food?

But they're SO tasty! (at least for a once-a-year "treat"...)

So tomorrow, I'll see how far 2 Gardenburgers can take me.

Your lucky you didn't get diarrhea on that bike

Gut bombs works like x-lax on me.

3. I posted the same message twice

Always use the bathroom before leaving White Castle if you have a long drive home or you might have an accident on the way home and I don't mean a car wreck either.

4. Almost as bad as a Jolt/Kool-aid mix

5. It's those little holes in the patty

They are 4-dimensional drains into which your energy disappears, and a nap is necessary.

Either that, or it's the grease.

6. Why do you think they nickname 'em "Sliders"?

Cause they don't stop once you swallow 'em!

7. One would think...

That after eating White Castle that you'd have a natural rear mounted rocket booster.

8. Hmmmm...Maybe it WASN'T the saddle that was groaning and squeeking...

But I oiled the anchors anyway when i got back...:7

9. I think cyclists refer to that as the "afterburner."

10. One of the worst things about living in Va Beach..NO WHITE CASTLES!

God I miss those mini cholesterol bombs..Last time I drove to Ohio I stopped by one and got like 20 to munch on on the way home..Yeah I can see how they would not help a 20 mile bike ride. Next time Fruit before ride and a big heaping on White Castles as reward!
