- I think I have 10 of everything.
- [Interviewer] 10 of everything?
- Something like that, yeah.
- Secret stuff, okay?
I've already had my carb, okay?
- I think, there's Haribo guys around,
so I'm gonna try and get some Haribos.
- Got some banana gels.
- That sounds disgusting.
- It actually does, but it's not too bad.
- In pocket number one we have
an orange isotonic S.I.S. gel.
- Woo.
It says spicy on it, and I did not expect.
At first it wasn't spicy at all,
and now I'm just, it's hitting me.
- So, today we have got a strawberry gel from Nutrixxion.
- I've got three in this pocket.
(laughs)
I don't know why I'm being judged for this.
- We've got two citrus.
It's important to have something different, you know?
It's not, yeah, it's not,
then it's a little more nice to eat.
- I've been awake since six in the morning,
and anyone who know me knows that I'm not a morning person.
So this pocket is full with
the gels with caffeine.
- I've got caffeine, I've got a little bit of love.
So I think I'm good.
- Nutrixxion gels and when I can reach it,
(laughs)
which is not a good sign,
'cause in the race it's not so easy.
- And then pocket number two, we have a caffeine one, berry,
and then, the most important,
I have rice cakes which are Oreo flavoured,
by our swanny, Phoebe.
Makes the best rice cakes in the world.
- I didn't know Oreo flavoured rice cakes even existed.
- I've got a Nutrixxion Peanut Butter Choco Bar.
Really good.
Really good combo.
- That sounds tasty.
- Really tasty.
You should have a taste.
But, unfortunately not now.
- I'll stick to a croissant, thanks.
- I've got three gels.
I've got two bars.
- [Interviewer] Tasty--
- Nothing tasty.
I did have a pancake, but I've left it in my bag.
- Oh no! - Accidentally, yeah.
- I anticipate being very hungry.
And I don't wanna be hungry going up the Col de Romme, so.
- Just a little hot, some heat in my mouth.
Ready to go. (laughs)
- I didn't know they even made spicy Haribo.
- That's a new thing for me,
and I'm a a pretty big Haribo fan, so.
- And what would you really like to have in your pockets
that you don't have?
Like, is there any treats you would normally really like?
- Um, gelati, pizza.
- Can you put a gelati in your pocket?
- I don't know, anything's possible.
- Well, I'm really looking forward
to a glass of wine tonight.
And a nice dinner.
Just, you know, maybe a pizza or something
that we haven't been eating through the week.
- Got an energy bar, banana fudge.
It's the flavour in my opinion.
- I have rice cakes, Oreo rice cakes.
By my swanny, Phoebe.
My favourite is Blueberry Go energy bars
to keep those carbohydrate stores loaded.
- Is there a treat that you like having in your pocket
that you don't have today, like?
- You know, sometimes after the race,
I really like you know, Fanta,
or a Coke or something like that.
And then maybe some candy.
- Candies. (laughs)
They were walking around here, and I love candy,
so I need to have them. (laughs)
- Maybe some cheesecake.
Some red wine.
Some pizza, you know.
The things that I haven't been eating
for the past few months. (laughs)
- One straps to here for the last--
- [Interviewer] Oh my god, that's very triathlete.
- It is, I've never done triathlon.
I've always wanted to try it, but.
- You have no treats?
No treats at all?
- Nah, not this tour.
It's a bit tough, coming from the Giro to here.
I only had one day, and that was a travel day,
so we just stuck to the basic bars and gels.
But normally, we'd have yeah, some little cakes
and rice cakes, and a bit more interesting.
But that's alright, just one race.
So gels will do.
- I have homemade banana rice cakes.
They're really nice, so I have two of them.
And then I have a peanut salty bar,
which I cut in two pieces.
And just for emergencies, a caffeine gel.
(laughs)
- Nice.
- I can't even hold them all in my hands.
- [Narrator] Mmmm.
A fascinating selection of gels.
Plus, an interesting variation on the original rice cake.
Give us a thumbs up if you liked it.
And, of course, share it with your friends.
