A question that many cyclists have asked: how much coffee must you drink to ride faster and further? Years of studies by dozens of scientists have shown what the pros have known for decades - coffee adds zip. Now research is helping to nail the numbers
Drink Coffee, Ride Faster
"A Spanish lab gave a group of amateurs a combo of caffeine and carbohydrate gel and has found they rode significantly better than others who had smaller doses or none at all. The big hit of caffeine gave them staying power.
But how big was the hit? The scientists from the Unversity of Alicante gave the volunteers measured amounts of caffeine for every kilo of their body weight. The doses were taken 70 minutes before the experiment."
