5 Nutrition Tips for the Tour de Brisbane

  1. Aim to consume 30 – 60g of carbohydrate per hour of riding.
  2. Eat and drink consistently on the ride. Set your watch alarm to go off every 20mins as a reminder.
  3. To ensure your carbohydrate stores are full, consume a carbohydrate rich snack 15-30 mins before the start. Good options include a Winners Sustained Energy Bar or a banana.
  4. Prepare food to eat post ride and boost recovery. 15- 30 mins after a ride the body can replace energy stores at 150% the normal rate.
  5. Remember to always test your nutrition plan in training prior to the ride.
