I found myself working out how to do the transitions... barefoot with rubber platform pedals. I’m sure someone on here would be fretting about nutrition and hydration... ;)
That's right, NO distance is short enough to do w/o nutrition and hydration. (pink) :)
No kidding! ;) My highlight is still having seen a bike rigged for a sprint in the AG-ranks. Regular 20km flat bike. Person in question had 7 or 8 - i kid you not - gels taped to his stem. And 2 full water bottles of course. No pink! :)
7 or 8 gels for a sprint, Holy Sh*t Batman!!! I don't take in any calories unless i'm riding 50 miles or more, and even at 50 it would just be defizzed Coke or Mtn Dew. I'm a big defizzed soda drinker, more bang for the buck calorie-wise than Gatorade, Powerade, etc.
