    What Do Tour de France Riders Eat For Lunch? | How Pro Cyclists Fuel For Bike Races



    Pro cyclists at the Tour de France don’t have the luxury of stopping the race to refuel and eat lunch. So just how do they plan their nutrition to make sure that they can take in enough calories to give them enough energy for the race? Ollie goes inside the musette to show you.

      The rice cakes seem vile but I guess you'll eat anything when your stomach, mouth and brain are turning to mush or sand while on a ridiculously strenuous, sapping, cell destroying, organ decomposing bike race.

      I was guessing they would eat healthy only, but they don't eat healthy at all, everything is unhealthy things looks like they're just promoting brands.

      Lol. I've been American my whole life and have never heard anybody pronounce plastic wrap that way.

      Cheer on the recipe though! I will have to give it a go.

      Oh my god. As an asian, i have duty to tell you white gays how to wash rice. first, you don't need strainer for rinsing rice. just discard water carefully, slowly (for not losing a grain). you don't need to try to pour all the water because at the end you will add water to rice as you can see in the late part of this vidio. secound, you should rinse it at least 3-4 times. not just once. so repeat the adding water, rinsing, pouring three or four time.
      and i have to say that i was so suprised that you gays use CHEESE….no way…..shit what's the problem of you
