Do you use the recommended zig zag approach from that calorie site or keep it standard?

NihonCougar

I keep the net calories standard, but I do eat more on days I burn a lot more.

IMO, you have #1 backwards-low calorie dieting works because it limits the carbs

I think you need to consider this from an evolutionary standpoint: our bodies are excellent reservoirs for carbs

Right. Human history has been carb loading in summer, ketosis in winter.

Sorry, it's not. Our bodies are quite complex.

Thr complexity of human bodies is not evidence against calories in/out.

But a couple hours later aren't you hungry? I find that a hard morning ride will mean I'm hungry all day long.

This is most likely due to the natural decline of muscle composition as you age.
