You should do a poll on how much time is spent cooking and doing dishes to eat healthy. The recipe doesnt matter as much unless its a fast one. Nobody has time to cook cause they're all out riding thier bikes after work. This is the major cyclist struggle
For the energy drink I just mix sugar with water (4 tbsp/bottle), add a pinch of salt and enough lemon juice to make it drinkable. Also a pinch of ginger. For food I opt for oat cakes, cheese sandwiches or a banana + a motivational snack. I'll give rice cakes a try next time.
I couldn't cook rice to save my life either until a friend from the Philippines told me to cover the rice in the pot with water such that the water level touches the second knuckle on your index finger when you put it in the pot and touch the rice. Cook it covered on no more than medium heat and remove once done. It works for any volume you're cooking. Who knew?
2:1 water to rice ratio and if you have a pressure cooker like an instant Pot just hit the rice button and when done immediate release pressure and add oreo and cream cheese..perfect every time! I find Japanese sushi rice works perfectly! Enjoy!
Well, Eddy B, the Polish cycling coach in the '80s, recommended cream cheese, ham, and fruit preservatives sandwich segments for refueling mid flight. Warmed in a plastic sandwich bag in a jersey pocket, they're absolutely heavenly. All the flavors are enhanced to stimulate the digestive system for maximum effect. Chase it down with pure water. The fruit preserves kick in immediately. The bread kicks in next, then the cream cheese, then the ham protein. Protein helps recoveries on the ride. When lazy or unprepared, and on the edge of bonk, nothing like a fizzy Coca Cola Classic or a Snickers candy bar. Imagine European pastry would shine brightly at mile 40. Americans seldom have that choice.
Great point about candy bars. Personally I love a Bounty as a mid ride snack. A lot of this DIY food is disgusting and impractical tbh. Eating rice cakes and pb and j sandwiches on a bike sounds miserable to me.
I make my own energy drink for long rides/workouts. A simple syrup solution with added salt, mixed with mostly water, some juice and fresh squeezed real lemons or limes. Works great, I call it my bonk water.
very inspirational! must try some of these concepts during this season. Tried the gravel/trailmix several times on the bike and during hikes. Now I just take the m&m's and nuts seperately, as i constantly find myself picking for the m&m's anyway. Generally i go for sweet snacks (mars, snickers and the like) and then a savoury lunch og post ride meal depending on the length of the ride.
8:08 is essential. Easy to open on the bike. I wrapped up my rice cakes in strong foil, and... Well, here's the unpleasant story: 60km in, needing a bite to eat, and I have this rice cake left. I'm dreaming of it. Cannot wait. Eventually get onto a nice easy road and take it out. I start unwrapping it with one hand and my teeth. It's a bit of a struggle but I'm making progress. It takes a while. But I think I'm in. And then I feel a bit of a sting on my lip. I ignore it. Lift the rice cake to my mouth. And it is red, pretty much all over. It's covered in blood. I put my hand to my lip. Blood all over my hand. Now I can taste it and feel it on my chin. The rice cake is ruined. I was so hungry I still considered eating it, but it was just not an option. So now I'm bonking and I have an open wound depositing blood into my mouth as I ride. Moral of the story is: don't use the fortified foil with its crazily sharp edges, and maybe just open with your hands!
Thanks for the tasty treat ideas! It would be nice to know the # of carbs per serving too. I love a good pancake mix with nuts and cranberries for those all day rides.
Aldi malt loaf, 59p last time I bought some, better than soreen (imo) and Aldi peanut butter (£3.99 for 1kg, find peanut butter cheaper anywhere else and let me know)
I make a sort of home made “ferrero rocher” of dates, roasted hazelnuts & pecans, & a little dark chocolate. I toast the nuts in an air fryer for 7 min, put the pitted dates and chocolate chips in a high powered blender, and top it with the toasted nuts. The nuts melt the chocolate and you can blend it to a medium chunk, then spoon it out into a bag & shape bite size pieces with your hands. I leave some hazelnuts whole to put into the middle for a satisfying crunch. I call them 🦄💩 because they look like 💩 but they taste magical :)
@CycleQ if you find yourself in San Francisco you can have some of mine, but I encourage you to make some of your own and ask questions if you feel stuck along the way :)
I've always been too lazy (or intimidated) to prepare any snacks of my own but ClifBars (White Chocolate Macadamia Nut and Oatmeal Raisin Walnut) are my go to carry on snack and not too pricey when on sale. For liquid nutrition I mix the following. Crazy Water No. 4 Beet Juice Powder Maple Syrup or Agave Nectar Matcha or Raw Cacao Powder Ginger Pumpkin Pie Spice (Walmart) Cayenne Pepper Elete CitriLyte Occasionally, on gravel rides like Grava Del Fuego, I'll take advantage of the free beers along the course. Carb load with Karbach was the slogan in 2022!
this video is one of my favourites of the channel, also presented by Manon so it's great. The video brought me a laugh at times, seeing how british cuisine can be at times. (not particularly healthy I'd say but for a cyclist yup it's nice)
Instead of the usual fruit jams in my peanut butter panini I've taken to using home made Chilli Jam I find it less sickly than the fruit jams. Works well on Cheese scones too!
homemade protein balls based around semi hydrated oats, mixed with blended dried fruits (dates, sultanas), nuts, seeds (hemp,chia,flax) bound together with peanut butter and rolled in raw cacao. If my wife hasn’t eaten them from the fridge before my ride, i wrap them in edible wrapping so they don’t stick together and no chance of adding to the roadside litter issue.
My rice cakes never go well (they don't hold together) and they only last a day or 2 in the fridge. I make a simple flapjack with oats, honey and peanut butter and sometimes add dried majool dates. They last weeks even out of the fridge. The only downside is the higher fiber than rice cakes but I'm not doing multi day stage races!
Hi Guys, I just had a Granfondo yesterday (126km/1500m) and I had to give it up near the end. I really tried fuelling well. The first 60 of the ride was epic, but up to 70 it was okay, but then I felt part the "fuel" is still in my stomach and now it had a lot of air inside. At around 80 or so, it was really hard to drink or eat anything, I had a gel (that was probably not tolerated well by by stomach). Then shortly after I had a bonk, then all I could do is ride on minimum effort for another 20km, fighting with the urge to throw up. At around 100, I encountered an about 120m steep climb that I could hardly do by then. I ate something and drank, then rode on, but it was a nightmare. At around 107 I was done. I was so tired and fighting with the urge to vomit, that I couldn't even ride in first gear on the flats. I then had to abandon the race, having only 19km left. I might have chosen a ride too hard for myself or fuelling might have went wrong. Or both. But I think the real problem was the stomach issue, and because of this, I felt pain and could not add more energy to my body. Do you have any ideas? I watched about all your videos, multiple times and tried to do all you suggested. I even had vegan ricecakes based on your recepie, that was the best think I ate! :) BTW, I was eating 4 rice cakes, 2 energy bars, 2 bananas, 2 musli bars and a gel. I had about 1 liter of water and about 1.5 liters of energy/electrolites sports drink. Some answers in the comments would be great, but if the solution would be made into a video or a part of a video, I'd love to see it. Thank you so much. :)
YES.. I think there is something at the bottom of Lake Toba which until now has not been able to be dived to the bottom of the lake by world researchers. It used to be before it became a lake because of a volcanic eruption thousands of years ago. Toba Volcano is a volcano with the largest eruption in the world. Initially, the story was mainland. After it erupted and formed a very large reservoir, it became filled with fresh water. .🆗
When it comes to the metric increments, I have charts for them. However, when it comes to the British monetary scale, it goes way over my head. I operate with the American dollar.
I'm a simple creature. I'll twist some plastic wrap around dried apricots and dates. You know the end of Ferris Bulher's Day Off? The gummy bears? Like that! Also, you can do this with Gummy bears. Toss them in sea salt if you dare.
You could have used a stronger emphasis on your drink. I'm pretty sure there's more than some measly carbs in there. Most beginners don't realize how dangerous it can be to lose to much salt through sweat, especially if you ride all da on a very warm summer day. I've not managed to land myself in hospital from cycling but from hiking. They told me that my blood sugar levels were low, which I knew because it was so hot I had trouble eating but I had 4 litres of fluid. Nevertheless, the told me I was very dehydrated. I had lost to much salt so my body couldn't keep the water in and I was very low on potassium to which is very dangerous as you need that for your heart and muscles to function properly. In the end they hooked me up on two infusion bags and gave me a shot of something very salty to drink. And told me to eat peaches, tomatoes, several types of fish, red meat, bananas, potatos (or chips) and to drink Aquarius (an easily obtained Spanish isomatte). I was doing the Camino de Santiago (in Catalunya) then and had limited foods available so it eventually came down to pre-packaged salads, tomatoes, peaches, bananas, potato chips and Aquarius. Having a low blood sugar for a few hours is less dangerous than losing to much salt and water. If you entirely run out of energy stop at the next chance, get yourself something to eat. But recovering from that took me a whole day. Also, do not underestimate the importance of vitamins. In all your recipes the come somewhat short.
A good thick slice of a granary bread with seeds on it (the speedier the better), a good slather of salted butter, whack in a banana and a few sultanas, fold over and squish together. Perfect snack.
I like to use waxed paper to wrap my snacks. A bit better for the environment, I think (and reusable). PB&J on whole wheat. Yum. Homemade Eatmore bars, pretty much pure sugar with some oats.
Please could you say exactly what setting you use on rice cooker. I keep messing mine up even though I’m using the same rice cooker as Nigel! How am I managing this?!?
@@notmyrealname6272 in The Plant-Based Cyclist book by Nigel, the rice cakes with same amount of water and rice as this recipe, he suggests about 20 pieces. Unsure how much the ziplock bag contained of the mix here, it definitely wasn't all of it, maybe half?
For the rice cakes, how many grams do you make for each serving, 50 grams per bar? I have no experience eating while riding, I usually just eat fruits and oatmeal before a ride, so I wanted to try prepping meals to eat while riding as well.
You can't go wrong with some mini pork pies 🤤 post ride would have to be 3 eggs scrambled on toast with half a tin of beans and a little grated cheese, an intestinal time bomb but so good!
What snacks do you like to take on your rides?
Cliff bars and PB&J
Stroopwaffles🇳🇱🧇
~175kcal of carbs/sugar in a compact serving of €0,10-15 a piece. Great with your coffee/tea to go as well👍
You should do a poll on how much time is spent cooking and doing dishes to eat healthy. The recipe doesnt matter as much unless its a fast one. Nobody has time to cook cause they're all out riding thier bikes after work. This is the major cyclist struggle
Clif bars are excellent! Looking forward to touring the Clif Bar Factory in southern Idaho.
@@apm9507 I get some from the grocery store every week. They are getting smaller due to inflation
For those asking cabs per 100g
Rice cakes - 24g
Jam and PB panini- 47g
Gravel mix - 35g
Is there another name for pudding rice? Hard to find where I live. Thanks!
Wow!!! Shocked the rice pudding has the least amount of carbs
cakes 24/100 ? whats the point i would rather it raw sugar
@@richardswizz221 Late to the game here...but in the US we call it Glutinous rice.
@@richardswizz221 Late as well but you might try „risotto rice“.
Looks like a bachelor's fridge minus the beer.
For the energy drink I just mix sugar with water (4 tbsp/bottle), add a pinch of salt and enough lemon juice to make it drinkable. Also a pinch of ginger.
For food I opt for oat cakes, cheese sandwiches or a banana + a motivational snack. I'll give rice cakes a try next time.
Can't go wrong with a banana! 🍌
That energy drink sounds disgusting
Maybe a reminder for those who don't understand the concept of littering - take the wrappers home with you!
Yes NeilT 👍 Shouldn't have to say it but always should recycle/throw wrappers in the bin!!
Or use a small reusable box to take your snacks with you.
Looks very tasty. I often shop for energy bars that are close to their „best before“ date. They come at a good discount and are still perfectly fine.
Good trick Christian! 👍
Manon the best!

1 cup rice, 2 cups water. High boil for 5 min without lid, let rest with lid for 15 mins. Done.
Or get a rice cooker. 1:1 rice water works with some rice too.
2:1 water to rice ratio and if you have a pressure cooker like an instant Pot just hit the rice button and when done immediate release pressure and add oreo and cream cheese..perfect every time! I find Japanese sushi rice works perfectly! Enjoy!
When you said ‘It’s so good’ - Sold me on trying out this recipe. That and using a rice cooker.

Thanks for this! We are on a budget so getting isotonic packets are often too expensive for us and your suggestion really sounds amazing 🤩
1/4 cup sugar = 50g carbs :D That's effectively my mix too, but a scoop of sugar instead of simple syrup.
I like the PB and J for a recovery snack. The rice cakes sound great too.
very inspirational! must try some of these concepts during this season. Tried the gravel/trailmix several times on the bike and during hikes.

I believe the global cycling community will embrace the Manon-athon.
Plain sushi rice with a little salt wrapped in seaweed and cut into bite-sized pieces. Easy-to-eat and quick energy
Nice, Tony!
8:08 is essential. Easy to open on the bike. I wrapped up my rice cakes in strong foil, and... Well, here's the unpleasant story:
60km in, needing a bite to eat, and I have this rice cake left. I'm dreaming of it. Cannot wait.

@@IHateStroads good without the garnish, yes. Bad with. Too metallic.
you are amazing! I love your tips! I watch them from Argentina!
Hi Mannon! On the rice cakes, how long would they last?
Nice fridge, btw, though please never invite me for dinner :P
Cherry Flapjack from B&M, 19p each. Larger bars are 29p.
Peanut butter, marmalade and banana wraps. Food of champions, and slow old gits as well. :)
Where do you buy your peanut butter? Aldi 1kg for £3.99(last time I was there)😊it’s good stuff aswell, just nuts no added ingredients 😊
Ooh yes, sounds lovely Andy!
Pre ride- almond butter toast with slice banana and honey
During ride- cluster dextrin drink mix and granola bar
Post ride- anything I see
See-food diet 👌🏻
Thanks for the tasty treat ideas!
It would be nice to know the # of carbs per serving too.
I love a good pancake mix with nuts and cranberries for those all day rides.
Manon has commented below but all that info is available in the book too!!
My favorite on-bike snack: banana.
Ingredients: 1 banana.
Method: detach banana from bunch. Insert into Jersey pocket.
Aldi malt loaf, 59p last time I bought some, better than soreen (imo) and Aldi peanut butter (£3.99 for 1kg, find peanut butter cheaper anywhere else and let me know)
I wanted to see you take the rice cake out of the Ziplock bag after it had cooled...
You can just cut along the edges and peel the top and bottom off. I mean most people won't wash out and reuse the ziplock bag anyway.
@@richardmiddleton7770 I guess it would have been better to put it on a shallow baking tray rather than use a Ziplock...
Jam on the bottom?! WHAT?! I know you folks use the metric system, but still.
Side note - Gravel mix is just M&M's with obstacles.

With outdoor riding season around the corner homemade mixed peanutbutter nut bars are one of my favorites
I’ve been way overthinking mid-ride snack. Helpful video!
Oreos are my favourite. And I am a big fan of rice. Looks like I will be trying this for sure for those upcoming rides. Thanks Manon!!!
Glad you enjoyed the video Steve!
I've always been too lazy (or intimidated) to prepare any snacks of my own but ClifBars (White Chocolate Macadamia Nut and Oatmeal Raisin Walnut) are my go to carry on snack and not too pricey when on sale. For liquid nutrition I mix the following.

Glad you had so much in the fridge!
That's a very empty fridge. Hey GCN, Manon needs a raise.
Would've expected post ride ice-cream from manon
Thanks for showing me how to make a peanut butter & jelly, and to follow the directions on the package to make rice. Great tips!

Soreen. With butter on 👌
Team smooth peanut butter !
This gave me some good ideas of how to pilfer from my uni dining center rather than buy over priced bars
Where are the flapjacks?
Love the idea of the gravel mix will definitely be using that 👍
Instead of the usual fruit jams in my peanut butter panini I've taken to using home made Chilli Jam I find it less sickly than the fruit jams. Works well on Cheese scones too!

Sound delicious! 🤤
Tortilla chips in a sandwich baggie. Salty, crunchy, satisfying.

They last weeks even out of the fridge. The only downside is the higher fiber than rice cakes but I'm not doing multi day stage races!
I go with protein bars and plant protein shakes from Orgain (either before or after)
Banana with cranberry jam for a snack and prosciutto with cornbread and goat cheese as a main meal.
Classic cheese and marmalade sandwich! And a mix of dates and almonds on the frame bag!
Sometimes, the classics are just unbeatable 🤤
It would be worth mentioning in future videos that aluminium foil can be recycled although I prefer to wrap in baking paper ;)

Mmm peanut butter and banana, the only thing with peanut butter it sticks to the roof of the mouth!
Buttery cornbread with a cycling thermos of tea.
Energy drink: 50:50 cranberry juice and water, dessert spoon of maple syrup and a pinch of salt….
For sure that taste good. Especially made by Manon.
Oreos are my fav too!
Rice cakes with dates and a bit of soy sauce for me. I have even made this into a rice pudding/risotto format.
Tortilla wrap with a banana and peanut butter. Wrap it all up and pop some foil over it.

used to take a cold baked potato and chunk of cheese.
What is the nutritional value on those great snacks?
All the nutritional info is in the book and Manon has also added a comment here about the carbs!
When it comes to the metric increments, I have charts for them. However, when it comes to the British monetary scale, it goes way over my head. I operate with the American dollar.
Girl, no wonder you're so hungry you could eat the handle off the fridge... you have NO FOOD IN YOUR FRIDGE! LOL!
I hope that PB&J recipe is one of the book's 67 recipes...
where can you find the paper to wrap the portions???
brand???
I have a recipe for flapjacks with nuts and seeds that is yummy, a British cycling recipe, but I like the look of the rice cakes 🍰
Please share recipe and process...Thanks
I'm a simple creature. I'll twist some plastic wrap around dried apricots and dates. You know the end of Ferris Bulher's Day Off? The gummy bears? Like that! Also, you can do this with Gummy bears. Toss them in sea salt if you dare.
5:01 Manon says she loves Eminem, so I guess 'Till I Collapse it is on the stereo. Cheers 😊
what type of sugar for the rice cakes?
You could have used a stronger emphasis on your drink. I'm pretty sure there's more than some measly carbs in there. Most beginners don't realize how dangerous it can be to lose to much salt through sweat, especially if you ride all da on a very warm summer day. I've not managed to land myself in hospital from cycling but from hiking. They told me that my blood sugar levels were low, which I knew because it was so hot I had trouble eating but I had 4 litres of fluid. Nevertheless, the told me I was very dehydrated. I had lost to much salt so my body couldn't keep the water in and I was very low on potassium to which is very dangerous as you need that for your heart and muscles to function properly. In the end they hooked me up on two infusion bags and gave me a shot of something very salty to drink. And told me to eat peaches, tomatoes, several types of fish, red meat, bananas, potatos (or chips) and to drink Aquarius (an easily obtained Spanish isomatte). I was doing the Camino de Santiago (in Catalunya) then and had limited foods available so it eventually came down to pre-packaged salads, tomatoes, peaches, bananas, potato chips and Aquarius.
Having a low blood sugar for a few hours is less dangerous than losing to much salt and water. If you entirely run out of energy stop at the next chance, get yourself something to eat. But recovering from that took me a whole day. Also, do not underestimate the importance of vitamins. In all your recipes the come somewhat short.
Bananas and a good old jam sandwich for me, though I will admit to making maple syrup, cream cheese and bacon rice cakes more than once...
Is the book also available in Italian?
Can you freeze the rice cakes?
A good thick slice of a granary bread with seeds on it (the speedier the better), a good slather of salted butter, whack in a banana and a few sultanas, fold over and squish together. Perfect snack.
Looks as good as Blake’s bake 😀
Great info would have been awesome to see the macros and calories
Can you freeze the rice cakes after cutting them up? Or how long do they keep in the fridge please xx
Sorry. I'm too much French for these recipes. Not my food culture at all. However ... I might try jam and peanut butter sandwiches 😋
I like to use waxed paper to wrap my snacks. A bit better for the environment, I think (and reusable). PB&J on whole wheat. Yum. Homemade Eatmore bars, pretty much pure sugar with some oats.
Post ride bean and tuna sandwich seems really British to me lmaoo
What is the title, and where can I find the Allan Merchanson video on GCN+?
Hi, you can watch the video we did with Alan here: ua-cam.com/video/9-20t9RfCJ8/v-deo.html
Do u have any low or no carb snacks - just mainly fats
Swap out the Oreos for 'Custard Creams' and I might be interested.
"It's so good...oh fuck!"....there goes that Blue Peter job :o)
Peanut butter with blueberrie jam and banana
When will we be able to buy the book without extra shippment costs?
i eat rice every day. i tried cooking rice on the stove b4, it was quite disastrous. How would 1 cook rice without a rice cooker?
Please could you say exactly what setting you use on rice cooker. I keep messing mine up even though I’m using the same rice cooker as Nigel! How am I managing this?!?
Oh yeah and for that amount how many are you cutting it into to make the right size snack/amount of carbs?
@@notmyrealname6272 in The Plant-Based Cyclist book by Nigel, the rice cakes with same amount of water and rice as this recipe, he suggests about 20 pieces.
Unsure how much the ziplock bag contained of the mix here, it definitely wasn't all of it, maybe half?
@@pr0nin thanks that’s helpful! :)
Rice cake looks yummy. If on long hot ride, will it melt and get mooshy?
Wow Manon, how empty is your fridge 🤣😥
For the rice cakes, how many grams do you make for each serving, 50 grams per bar?
I have no experience eating while riding, I usually just eat fruits and oatmeal before a ride, so I wanted to try prepping meals to eat while riding as well.
How long can I expect the rice cakes to keep for?
Oatmeal raisin cookies or oatmeal cranberry cookies.
I am in the same boat can't cook rice in a pot to save my life! 🤣🤣🤣
So is that an engagement ring? Do you take it off when you ride, just incase of an accident?
Ah, now I see why Manon, the track cyclist, did a video about climbing. Obviously, it was a package deal with the food video...
you need a thermomix 🙂
You can't go wrong with some mini pork pies 🤤 post ride would have to be 3 eggs scrambled on toast with half a tin of beans and a little grated cheese, an intestinal time bomb but so good!
Sounds glorious!
I once tried to put creatine on my drink lol.
Why do we need Petrs for the panini???
Beeswax wrapping paper instead of foil, reusable and zero waste.
You can also get soya wax versions and other vegan alternatives! Great environmentally conscious choice!!
fig rolls or garibaldi
