I know lots of you love coffee...so do you have a cup before a ride, during, or after? and why?

I like iced coffee right before a ride and with lunch if its a day-long ride. Then Mexican Coca Cola after!

I have a 12oz coffee in the morning when I'm on the spin bike. I order it up as I'm walk from the car into work. On the real ride I typically have a cup an hour before the ride.

I drink coffee two to three times a day so I don't die.

When it's colder out, like below 50ish, I'll have a small coffee mixed with hot chocolate to warm me up before heading out.
When I was working, we had an espresso machine, and I would make a mocha on the cold days. Definitely a mental thing, but it helped.

I drink 2 cups (16 oz total) in the morning with breakfast most every day. That's all.
Has to be at least an hour before I ride or I'll get an upset stomach during and/or after the ride.

I have coffee EVERYDAY. Period. Would not be able to find the front door without it. Medicinal purposes aside, I love coffee, but I probably only drink 2 - maybe 3 - cups a day.
But that first one, first thing in the morning...yes sir....

Only if I'm alone or with someone, riding or not, repeat several times daily.

Coffee is a constant in my life. Riding or not, morning - noon - night... it’s like comfort food.

I have two cups from my French press just about every morning as part of my normal routine.

Jeeze...I envy you guys who pop an espresso or so before a ride. I would have to stop to pee every ten miles if I had that much caffeine on board.

Normal morning cup before an early ride gets “things” moving. If it’s my Sat semi-competitive ride, I’ll often get a cold coffee at the store stop. If it’s race day, I’ll get a four-shot espresso on the drive.

At this very moment, I am enjoying the absolutely perfect cup of pour over — Philz Jacobs Wonderbar beans, quality burr grinder, Hario V60 cone and filters, filtered water and temp at 200F. Oh man, is this awesome.

Always before or at least stop at a cafe at the beginning of the ride. It's my performance enhancer.

I found a brand new Whirley Pop popcorn maker at Goodwill for $2.99 so now I'm roasting my own beans like a real cowboy too. Try it if you haven't.

I normally have a mocha in the mornings, but not on ride days...but the last few rides we have stopped for coffee mid-ride...and I seem to do much better after a coffee!
