For a pro cyclist out on a long ride, nutrition is key. We went to the feed zone to find out what's inside the rider's musettes.
Follow GCN on YouTube: 

As anyone who's ever ridden a long way knows, you get hungry! Pro riders get loked after by the team and are supplied a food bag or musette packed with a variety of treats.

We looked at what the guys on Team Sky, Belkin, FDJ, AG2R, Orica Greenedge, BMC, Garmin SHARP and Yellow Fluo get in their musettes.

The Global Cycling Network puts you in the centre of the action: from the iconic summit of the Stelvio to the epic trails of Fort William, Scotland, everywhere there is pavé or dirt, world-class racing, and pro riders, we will be there bringing you all the action, essential analysis and unparalleled access every week, every month, and every year.
