Yeah, but seriously, what's your post ride beverage?

Mini can of Coke!

I like pineapple or carrot juice. I try to juice some ginger too. Really helps to keep the muscles loose and inflammation down.
|
In my 20's I would drink a beer, or multiple beers. When I outgrew alcohol in my 30's I went through the hip latte/cappuccino /expensive "postworkout" energy BS phase. Now I drink cold water or Powerade. Matter of fact, I drink nothing else but that and milk.
|
in the late afternoon of my bike tour of NL, after a day of riding, picking up a cool beer was very nice..
|
Gatorade or chocolate milk.
I like to wait at least a couple of hours and get a meal in before starting the beers :thumb: |
morning routine. get up, get ready for a bike ride, make coffee, get on bike, ride bike, 1.5 hours later (actually more like 1:20:00 later), return home, pour a cup of coffee, go upstairs, take cycling clothes off hop back in bed, drink coffee.
I finish my 20 mile rides usually around 5:45 am. |
Arriving at work - a large ice water and an unsweetened shaken ice tea (when I care that I'm on a diet) or a large ice water and a frappuccino (when I don't care that I'm on a diet).
Arriving home - ice water and lots of it. |

1) Some of those generic store bought liquid fruit flavored squirty things, you squirt into water. I normally make one with ice in my water bottle for rides. Once I get back home, I get an 8oz glass of water, and use the "good stuff" that my wife bought, that is loaded with vitamin C and electrolytes and other things...
2) Once I stretch out, take a shower, relax, etc... I have to have one of these. It's almost a requirement! LOL... :lol: http://i.imgur.com/qoCqy1N.jpg |
Just as the commercial suggests, "Chocolate Milk" KB

I really like lemonade in the summer. After a hot evening ride a beer mixed with lemonade. After a hot summer morning ride plain lemonade. I don't know if it has any benefits, but it makes me feel good.

A glass of ice water with a wedge of fresh lemon or lime: simple, cold, quenches thirst, and minimum calories. Sometimes a flavored green tea works too.
