the schleck brothers to ride the tour of ireland is also something you might be interested in, along with Evans riding the Vuelta and as such being one of the candidates.
anyway, glad you're back

There seems to be a lot of Scotland-bashing in this thread, too much for my liking! As for the deep fried mars bars, they're not that bad at all, just don't eat them regularly! I think one has over 1000 calories...so not cyclist food!
Another speciality is deep fried pizza, but its an acquired taste methinks.
There are plenty of healthy foods up here too, by the way: mince and tatties, stovies, various soups - the list is end..., er actually, that about wraps up the healthy options!

haha no deep friend mars bars aren't cyclist food, but try one whilst out there. (not deep fried)
Great healthy options, the other choice is just to eat nothing

considering the one and only time I was in the US I saw fried coca-cola, the mars bars didn't surprise me that much... |
