Headaches After Long Pedal Bike Rides, Light Headedness. Treatment?

Hello, Im a 46 yr old male. I do a lot of pedal bike riding and over the last month I get very light headed after a long ride. The best way for me to describe it is how a boxer might feel after getting hit in the head several times just before he get s knocked out. I feel this way constantly but not nearly as bad when resting.
