Hi, the rider's weight is also an important data before and after the stage, and more important at the end of the tour. It work precisely as a control of what is consumed in each athlete. This works in such a way that what they lose during the stage they get back and ready for the next stage. Above all, don't exceed the calories, obviously they have their chefs and nutritionists on the bus.

Hi guys, amazing content, as always. What I would really like discussed is, the average diet on season versus off season, the diet in between big tours versus small tours, and everything in between. All I remember from my very brief experience, is going from consuming ridiculous amounts of food, to eating next to nothing, and then going straight back to eating ridiculous amounts of food. Imagine if Christian Bale was a pro cyclist with a new movie role every day, that was what I imagine.
