I'm definitely with ya on that one. Solid food seems to detract from morning workouts. I have had very good luck with Infinit Mud first thing in the morning (I'm a huge Infinit fan all around). It's enough calories/sugar/caffeine to get through most workouts, but not dense enough to affect them. Typically getting that in with plenty of water right away, warm up/foam roll/stretch a little, go to the bathroom and I'm ready to roll for most any bike or run workout.
I have also had pretty good luck with a big scoop of Scivation Xtend and caffeine if I'm doing 60 minutes or less. I know there's not many calories and no carbs, but it's really worked well for morning workouts. Mango tastes awesome too.
I don't think my stomach or taste buds will ever get tired of Clif Bars (Or the much pricier Picky Bars). Usually one of those at least 45 minutes before starting (along with water) sits pretty well without affecting anything other than the highest intensity run intervals.
And like all things, it takes practice. Good luck!
