July 12 Tip of the Week

7/12/2022

Your shorts legs...a great place to store food and trash!

While personally I’ve tried to get away from gels, blocks, and bars as much as possible, those fast acting, easily accessible foods are sometimes the best solution for me. This is particularly true in a very hard training ride or a race. I’ve always been a fan of putting several of my gels just up my short leg.  You can also leave just the tab of the gel poking out for an easy grab.  I find this location faster to grab than reaching in my jersey pocket. It also frees up space in your pockets for other foods or supplies during the longer events.

Our short legs are also great places to store trash until you can dispose of it properly. Do take care to fold the wrapper kind of flat or it can poke you in the leg, which is less than enjoyable.

Have a tip of your own? I’d love to hear about it! Post a comment below or send me an e-mail.
