dont bother with gels swifty donuts or anything high in cal;ories will do. Gels are just convenient calories for racers to use without stopping.

There was a Time Trial once called 'The Bath Road 100'.
The riders ate Cadbury's Dairy Milk.
Only because one of the Midland Cycling & Athletic Club riders was a Director of Cadburys.
