lunch

This will be my lunch for the next 8 months. JELLY BELLY SPORT BEANS is the only alternative to the wonderful CLIF SHOT i give to my body. Made using only natural flavours and colours, Tapioca syrup and evaporated Juice, it is a perfect mix of Carbohydrates, Electrolytes and Vitamines, and with the new easy-to-open zip you can always adjust perfectly the dosage you need, so your bottle is always filled only with water. LEMON LIME is my favourit flavour, but in case of long training or race i prefer to mix with the BLACK BAG(so sexy!) of assorted flavours. Don’t forget to drink enough water, at least 400/800 ml. per hour to avoid dehydratation. And have a good ride.

pizza alle cipolle

The first time I have tested this great PIZZA ALLE CIPOLLE was during a winter training camp in Sicily. Ok we do not have the right pizza wood oven, however the result is still fantastic. Here the recipe: Absolutely mix 300gr.of white flour with 200gr. of whole wheat flour. Put 20gr.of yeast in a cup with lukewarm water. Mix all together with salt. Try to find the best onion on the world the Cipolla di Tropea(mentioned also by GAIUS PLINIUS SECUNDUS in his Naturalis Historia) and instead Mozzarella(caloric bomb!) use Pecorino Romano. 10′ in a 250° oven and…buon appetito. You will stock a lot of Carbohydrates, Minerals, Vit.C/Vit.E, Selenium, Magnesium, Iron and Fibers for the next day.
