What to Eat on the Bike During Training and Racing

With the racing season in full swing, a big area of consideration and confusion for many cyclists is on the bike nutrition. We've talked at length about Winning in the Kitchen, but it's an entirely different animal to fuel yourself on the bike in training and racing. We sit down to discuss the fundamentals of nutrition on the bike, and share the essentials of what you need to know. Here's a short recap of what we covered:

< 2 hours: 45 g of carbohydrates per hour (~ 180 calories/hour)

2-5 hours: 30-60g carbohydrates per hour (120 – 240 calories/ hour)

5+ hours: 60-90g carbohydrates per hour (240-360 calories/hour)

Every 30 minutes : gels > blocks > bars + Skratch Labs rice cakes

Speaking of the "Guaranteed Not to Bonk" Rice Cakes here's Dr. Allen Lim's recipe (Berry + Mint + Chocolate)
