1 bottle per hour does the trick!
250 to 500 ML.
1 bottle per hour. Usually I don’t even think about it, it just happens.
I’m in the 700mL to 1L per hour camp. 700mL bottle with ~90g carbs per hour and then sipping on water if needed. Hotter weather I will dial back the calories (not the sodium) in my bottle and aim for a bit more fluid intake but I can’t really do much more than 1.2L/hr
How do you big drinkers carry all that water with you outside? Extra water bottle bosses? Or do you stop at a gas station or water fountain to fill up once or twice? Just curious about the logistics.
For road, I carry two large bottles and stop at convenience stores to refill. I usually have to use the bathroom so buying a big bottle of water is payback. For mtb - camelback. For gravel - 3 bottles and a camelback if I need more than that.
Outdoors, typically 1L per hour on a hard ride. Less on an easy ride unless it’s hot.
