Ride days are a whole different story. I eat all day because I don't have the stomach problems that running gives me.Then when I am on the bike, for rides over an hour, I use gels and power bars at about 30 minute intervals.
But on the run days, If I know I will be out for a while, I need to go light all day, try and eat and drink enough uring the run, then pound the calories after.

I've never had a serious bonk where I could at least ride 10mph or so.

My first century, I was on pace to do sub 5hr, and then at mile 90 or so I bonked. Could only ride 15mph. I was dehydrated. Luckily my riding partner gave me part of a bottle.

For me, bonking is when I crack. When I hit a hill, for example, and can't hang with the group anymore.
