Tip of the Day!

If you would like to cross the finish line looking like the person your horse would be proud of, I would urge you to do the following:

1. Three days before each ride, you need to eat at least 60% of your meals as complex carbohydrates.

2. During a ride, constantly take in fluid, electrolytes and simple carbohydrates.

3. Immediately after the ride, have a meal of complex carbohydrates.

4. Avoid fat like the plague.

The other camp never does CTR and sees no use for it. Many times have I read the debates on Ridecamp on the benefits and pitfalls of CTR. The division is unfortunate.
