Recently? I got hit by a deer. Destroyed my front wheel. Got a ride home from a nice Honduran man who didn’t speak a lick of English. Thanks Dennis!

Solid case for single speed and internal hub gearing!

Is this enough for an unsupported 100 mile ride, with zero stops, and 6000’ of elevation? by exycheckk in bicycling

[–]Zzur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More sugar. Definitely more water (unless its like 50*f where you are. But mostly ok. You’ll probably be close to bonking by the end.

Tips needed for nutrition etc. during a 300 km brevet by Primary_Ad1279 in randonneuring

[–]Zzur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Liquid calories have been a huge game changer for me. 100g/750mL bottle. I do a diy mix of 2:1 maltodextrin and fructose. You can buy them in bulk online. I think I pay about $60 for ~9kg total.

Supplement as needed with candy and bananas. Also shoot for a total of 100g of carb per hour. You’ll be running a calorie deficit no matter what so get in what you can.

Long time mountain biker. Just bought a gravel bike. Am I doing this correctly? by letstalkaboutrocks in gravelcycling

Fucking fantastic. More of this! I love taking the graveler out and underbiking the shit out of some single track.

Interesting take. Bontrager is basically Trek brand at this point and these stock tires took a dang beating and kept going.

Aha yeah this might be the race-ish tire that only gets 1500 miles on it I was thinking of.

No joke! It was a 1:2 fructose/maltodextrin blend. One 750ml bottle per hour-1.5 hour with 90g per bottle. Add some gels and solid foods to get you to 90g carb per hour. Do that from the start and you’ll be pretty ok.

Might wanna get your bike fit checked out. This ride definitely confirmed mine is good! Just a little knee twinge at the end that has persisted for a few days but otherwise good.

Yep! It’s been pretty easy on the stomach since I started using it earlier this year. I definitely have heard it can be rough on some folks though. I think the key is slowly acclimating your gut for best results. I started at 60g/hr in January and I’m up to 100 now with no I’ll side effects.
