HANDS. DOWN.

This and then a beer truck.

Who the HELL thought we wanted Subway sandwiches after USAT Nationals? I don't think I saw Jared eat one either.

The best menus I have seen are SOS and St. Anthony's.

Right after finishing it's baked potatoes with salt and olive oil - and beer. (I bring them with me.)

Or full fat milk and chocolate. Or both.

I also like Coke, and even Coke mixed with beer, as long as it's cold.

After that, I'm with echappist: I want cooked food over fast food. (In a perfect world, it would be this, but it is not a perfect world and it's not easy to find: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feijoada.)

I'm the type who usually calls home to know what's for dinner, and sometimes in the afternoon think about it in anticipation. Same with racing: whenever possible, I try to see where I'll be eating afterwards.

I'll go to some place that serves any combination of meat and potatoes (or rice): steak and mash, blood sausages and mash, calf's liver and potatoes, roasted veal and potatoes, meat stews, chicken or lamb curry, etc. Not that difficult to find. Echappist's chicken risotto sounds great too.

All washed down with beer or red wine.

If I know any of this is coming (and many times I do), it's also a great incentive to get to the finish line as quicky as possible.

After that, it will be whatever smelly, heavy cheese is available and/or chocolate mousse, the thicker the better. If they have gelatin, I'll eat that too.

At this point I'm done - at peace with the world and (unless things went really well or really bad) not much bothered with how I finished in the race.

I'm surprised at the number of people who drink beer after a race.

I have nothing against beer, and I drink plenty. But after a race when my body is traumatized and trying to recover isn't when I do it.

Some nonalcoholic beers are also great IMO - and apparently good for recovery too: http://well.blogs.nytimes.com/...s-marathon-recovery/

Will this be a game changer for Specialized, in both sales and product design, or will it not move the sales and design needle versus those in Specialized's competitive set?
Yes, Game Changer
