Digestion issues (cycling related)

    Hi guy's, I have a small issue and was wondering if anyone here has experienced the same.

    If I do any sort of physical exercise less than about 2 hrs after eating I get serious digestion type problems. Bloating - trapped wind etc.

    It's particularly bad when cycling as on some of the longer runs, well I just get hungry ! And as little as 1/2 a banana might set it off.

    Last year on the ROK I was so bad after the Kenmare stop I had to "purge the food" half way up the gap in order to alleviate the issue.

    Anyone any remedy for this at all ? Any advice ?
    Some of the gels or something maybe ?

    Thanks
    Rob

    Are u sure you don't have IBS?

    If you cycle with people, that can be a problem if they follwo you ... just make sure noone cycles behind you :)
