I'm sure he's eating well prior to the races, but in the race he's getting a good assortment of nutrients. high amounts of protein and carbs and sugars. while i guess he could be getting more refined in supplements it seems to work pretty well.
i tend to eat a large vegan dinner the night before i race and a pretty good breakfast. usually pretty fatty in the morning. a lot of the racers i talk too (whch menas theyre a little less pretentious because most riders don't talk to the shitty punk kid riding in knickers and a t shirt) have a similar eating rutine, but they tend to eat more of the goo shit and energy block things. but i know at the end of the race i have a tendancy to feel a little better, even if i don't finish top 10. on top of that i also usually have to rie my bike home after the race.
