This leaflet provides nutritional advice to enhance your ability for success in endurance cycling. There is a wide and varied range of topics in this discipline of sports science, therefore I will only concentrate on a few of these areas that should be most beneficial to your cycling performance.

The topics I will cover are:
- Carbohydrate eating strategies prior to training and competition
- Carbohydrate feeding during exercise
- Feeding strategies to enhance recovery
- Fluid replacement requirements during exercise and recovery

It is important to note that these guidelines are beneficial to those cyclists who regularly compete and those involved in touring events such as the Tour of the Glens and Wicklow 200.
