Carousel by Sara Sabine Fløe Knudsen

Sara Sabine Fløe Knudsen@sarasabinefk

Last week, we rode 250 km with almost 4,000 m of elevation gain in Mallorca — aaaand when I’m riding in Mallorca, I eat a lot more on the bike. I aim for around 60–75 g of carbs per hour — and when you’re climbing in the mountains, there’s no way back once the tank is empty. So these snacks (and drinks) are non-negotiable, girls!!! 💘 Here are some my favourite snacks and energy sources: 🍬 @purepowerdk Energy Chew — 23 g carbs 💌 @purepowerdk Gel — 25 g 🍦 Calippo ice cream — 22 g 🥤 Coca-Cola — 35 g (330 ml) 🍫 Laccao chocolate milk — 21 g (200 ml) 🍌 Banana — 27 g (1 piece) 🥐 Croissant — 25 g (60 g) 🧃 PurePower Carbo Race — 45 g (50 g) 🩵 LOTS of water — 0 g 💧 🥭 @sunshinedelights.dk dried mango — 80 g (whole bag) One thing to remember: not all carbs are created equal. A croissant can contain plenty of carbohydrates, but a large part comes from flour and starch, which can be digested more slowly than glucose- and fructose-rich sources such as dried mango, gels and fx carbo race mix. What’s your favorite snacks? 🧃🍫🍌🍬 #mallorcacycling #cyclingsnacks #ridesnacks #girlsonbikes #womenscycling

@atlascycling.co 4,000m of climbing will definitely make you respect the carbs 😂 This is exactly why we built ride-specific nutrition into Atlas. Fuel the route, not the guesswork. One thing though... Strawberry Calippo all day long ,)
