After Cannell Plunge I was planning on heading straight home but hunger took over. Ended up stopping at one of my faves, J's Place in Bakersfield. Southern soul food. Got my staple, the Fried Shrimp Plate (cornmeal crust) with collard greens and red beans and rice. The extra a la cart shrimp and Sweet Tea were crucial. In the context, it was one of the best meals I'd ever eaten, and I don't think I'll ever do Cannell without going there.

I go home, but not straight. :D

No go-to after-ride formula for us. I would enjoy most anything on the list. Sushi probably doesn't make the grade, and ribs are more an activity than food. Pizza may be the ultimate food pyramid. The photos look delicious!

How about those rides where, near the end, you are on less than fumes, fighting waves of nausea and can barely stand up? There's only one "food" that pulls me out of that. Chocolate milk FTW! I do love beer and very often choose it before anything else, but when it's grim, choco moo is the medicine. I'll even drink regular milk over beer if I'm spent. Something soothing about dairy. After a marathon/long cardio event, nothing can touch soft ice cream. Not even beer.

That Sierra Nevada and hot dog I had at your place after Yaeger Mesa was the Sh!t at 1am!
 
Who am I kidding???? Scooby Snacks are for before, during, and after a ride. All in the name of SAFETY!

Post ride meals???? :confused:o_O None. Usually I'll bring a banana and or apple from home and enjoy it on the way home. Then when I get home it's usually bacon and eggs. OR, if it is close to lunch time my better half will make a fully fresh organic fruit smoothie!!! Sooo Goooood!

All you guy's mentioning post ride beers. In the recent words of DDD, "I can't". There is not a single thing about beer that makes me want one. I don't get it!

As much as I wallow in old habits, I would give up beer long before I would scooby snacks. The poor man's high often leaves a little (a lot?) to be desired. Disgusting in the heat. I get ya. @rossage style is good style.

But now I'm going to crack one. :facepalm::geek:

Beer.
It's been five years.
I'm thinner, stronger, and saner(?)

I enjoy an ice cold Coca cola right after a ride. While you guys down a beer, I'll put 0.2 g in the dry herb vape and try to stand downwind so @Mikie doesn't test positive on the pee pee test
Then I want food. Fast, hot, greasy. Burgers, Mexican, pizza, maybe even a Mexican pizza-burger.

That is way out of the way from Cannell. That place is 1.5 miles from my house. Great food there like you said. If you go there again, hit me up.

I can't remember exactly, but I feel like I Wazed it at the time and it only added like 10 min to my trip, though actual mileage may have been more disparate. Either way, the idea popped into my head and it was like a tractor beam. I end up in Bakersfield for a handful of days each year for work, and eat there almost each day that I'm there (and I always get the same thing). I'll definitely hit you up next time I'm there.
