My fueling strategy is being adapted. At the Duquoin stop, I have often (usually?) bought a container of Fig Bars as a snack. Today it is a necessity. In fact, I inhaled the first package and went in to buy a second one. I have had to carry my Perpetuem flasks inside my jacket to keep them thawed (the first one on the bike froze in less than 15 minutes). But I can't unzip with gloved hands, and removing my gloves while riding is not going to happen. I've been reduced to reaching for them only at the stops. I'm going to need fuel that doesn't freeze so easily. (I gave Mike a package of his own, and they became his new favorite cold weather fuel, too!)
