Caffeine on the ride

Did my first 100 miler of the season yesterday. Had a rough patch around mile 70, then switched to Expresso Hammer Gel and life was sweet!!

Hmmm. Might need to make this part of the Ironman plan. Hit Expresso Gel at the end of the ride…then hold off until the second half of the marathon to hit it again.

Beware though, once you start riding the Red Bull or hitting the espresso stuff, you are on for the ride. You have to keep hitting it or risk the crash.

I use Red Bull, but I watch out for the horns.
