Always sunflower seeds-- whether on a road trip for biking or not. Usually wash 'em down with Lemon-Lime Gatorade.
Hey Elk (et. al) I read your posts on your Phelan ride. Sounded great! (except for the chilly weather) I like the desert heat. My sister and bro-in-law(rides a Dr350 and DT1/2 vintage) live in Apple Valley and we still have our property in El Mirage(right next to Murphy's Bar). I make it out to CA once in a while and next time I'll try to hook up with you guys.
