Re: >120 g/hr carbohydrate realistic? Discussion on MAX carb consumption rates during exercise. [DrAlexHarrison]
Interesting discussion. To me it looks like there is maybe a fairly narrow range here.


I'm guessing Duncan74 means 90g per hour. For him that's about 1g per kg per hour on the bike.

DrAlexHarrison, bigger guy, 100+g per hour, also about 1g per kg per hour over a long ride. Not sure how valid rates for short rides are- for example, someone could ride for 5 minutes, drink a glass of orange juice, and claim 1000g per hour.

Me, smaller, 60g per hour on the bike is about what I can handle , also about 1g per kg per hour. On the run I often struggle to take anything though.
