Every time I do it my performance seems cut in half and I am suffering even 10min into doing it, and I mean actual suffering here that I would usually only have after riding hard for 45-60min or going on longer rides where I push it. I did drink quite a bit of water before starting the ride so dehydration shouldnt be the problem but going for a ride an hour or so after waking up on an empty stomach is fucking torture for me.
