Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How many carbs per hour should I aim for on The Fred Whitton Cycling Sportive?

A: For a long, hilly sportive like the Fred Whitton, most athletes should aim for:

  • 60–90g carbs per hour if you’ve practised it in training
  • 40–60g carbs per hour if you’re newer to fuelling or have a sensitive stomach

The key is start early and go little-and-often. If you wait until you feel empty, you’re already behind.

This can come from Bars, Gels and KMC ISO MIX.
