I ride a week long 700+ mile ride each year. Proper hydration and carb consumption is really all you need to worry about. I understand there are some teams that ride like the wind but that comes down to simply putting the miles in. Steroids offer no real solution for a casual week long ride...get some butt butter and some Monkey Butt powder and man up.
