Never try anything new on race day

http://www.cyclingnews.com/news/change-in-sports-drink-blamed-for-uaes-poor-tour-de-france-performance/

really ?!?! changing the drink for the biggest race of the year. amazing

Something doesn’t quite pass the sniff test. There were a couple of comments that I thought prescient. If the drink wasn’t working, why not change back? Given the difficulty in getting sponsors, why throw one under the bus after the world’s biggest bicycle race?

This looks like extremely poor team management.
