In this episode, we explore the nutrition and hydration strategies of Tour de France riders. We'll journey from the early days of Maurice Garin, who ate a hodgepodge of foods like cutlets and champagne, to today's carefully planned diets. Learn what riders eat during the race, such as energy bars and sandwiches, and how they stay hydrated with isotonic drinks. Discover the innovative techniques teams use to monitor and adjust each rider's diet and hydration plan to ensure peak performance and recovery.
