I drink coffee and enjoy it twice a day, and of course, current cups size probably makes that a real 6 cup habit. I don't see the benefit when riding all day, water is what my body craves and screwing with the motor is not something I need with the stress of doing 80-90 miles a day with my old bod. What I don't get is any withdrawal symptoms. I'm sure I would if I went off coffee at home, but there is such a change in touring any way that I don't have a problem dumping the coffee.
