Borah Epic

[Mudpuddle]

Thanks, will see if my old back can take the abuse! I appreciate the advice! Speaking of nutrition, how do you carry food on your top tube? What kind of food do you carry? Gels? Power bars? Leg of lamb?!?
I'm used to 10-20 mile races where I have one water bottle, 1 electrolyte bottle, & a couple of gels.

Get a too tube “gas tank” at your local shop. You have to figure out what food works for you... easy to eat, easy to digest stuff. I like fig newtons, breakfast cereal bars, peanut butter & honey/jelly sandwich, gel or two or three, that type of stuff, depends on the length of race. Electrolytes are just as important, salt lick capsules and gateraid stuff. That’s probably more important for longer races than the borah, but it all starts at over 2 or 3 hours...
