EAT, Sleep, Ride: Meal planning and cooking strategies for bikepackers
Creating nutritious, satisfying meals that are also light, compact, and fuel/water efficient while out bikepacking can be tricky. Meal nutrition while bikepacking is a key opportunity to set your body up to remain fueled for the miles ahead and recover for the next day of riding. Meals are also often times to enjoy the camping side of bikepacking, and are a great social opportunity. Building on the first Virtual Workshop series webinar that covered bikepacking nutrition and hydration, this workshop will share strategies for utilizing meals to maintain energy and promote recovery while bikepacking while balancing nutrition with the reality of the limitations of traveling by bike.
