Can We Eat 7000 Calories In One Ride? | Milan-San Remo Challenge!

Рет қаралды 92,934

Жыл бұрын

Milano-Sanremo is the first of cycling’s five ‘Monuments’ and at a whopping 294km is the longest race on the men’s pro calendar! In a race so long, riders need to consume a lot of calories. Seven thousand to be exact, if Conor’s experience is anything to go by. But how much food is that? Conor & Manon went to Italy to ride the last 100m of ‘La Classicissima’ to find out!

I met a man who did a multi-week solo kayak trip. He had to carry as much of his own supplies as possible. He started the trip INTENTIONALLY 30 pounds overweight. At the end of the expedition, he was actually underweight. The strategy was to carry a lot of calories in reserve by being overweight at the start. Probably not a good strategy for bike racing, but I wonder how it would be for a long endurance ride, such as a ride across America, or a relatively uninhabited area such as Mongolia.

I recently did a test ride for we ride Flanders to see if I can go through enough calories to make it to the end. After that, I found it hard to believe what the pros must consume and how they get it in, especially heavier riders because the maximum calorie uptake does not scale with weight. Please more on efficiency and how to use fat as fuel on the bike.

How do you pace it? Sounds like one for Si and Iñigio San Milán for me.

Well he's twice the size of Manon and after watching other films with him in I think it was just a normal days food intake for him!😂😂😂😂 Riders don't actually take on board the amount of calories they expend! Their bodies are used to going into deficit while still being able to crank out the watts! I reckon a top rider will maybe only take on maybe an extra 20 - 30% of carbs during a race. Otherwise they'd need the toilet rather rapidly. The deficit gets repaid later.

Is it possible that I burned 6800 calories during a 220km (136miles) 1900m (6200feet)+ with an average of 25kph (15mph) (with bags)? I’m 1.75m tall (5’9) and weigh about 70kg (154pounds). The data comes from Garmin Edge 520plus head unit and Garmin watch for hearth meter. No cadence nor power meter though so I don’t know how accurate it is. For sure I was really hungry in the end!!
