Description

In this episode, we’re diving deep into one of the most overlooked but critical aspects of cycling racing: how to fuel during a long race. With the Cherohala Challenge coming up, we address:

  • Should you rely on the aid stations? Or carry everything yourself?
  • What’s the real cost—in time and performance—of stopping?
  • Should you pee on the bike?

 We also dive into our thoughts on this year’s Giro d'Italia. Whether you’re trying to win, survive, or just get better—this episode is for you.
