I make my own ride bars whenever I can. They're a very basic, no-bake oat based bar, then you can spruce them up with extra nuts or fruits or whatnot.

I would take many of the "results" in that doco with a massive grain of salt. It does border on vegan propaganda, but the athletes are of course incredible.

Can cyclists perform on a plant based diet?

I've been "plant based" for almost a year now and it works for me.

Was it a mega massive performance game changer? No. But I definitely feel "lighter" and recover from training faster.
