Nuun
All La Fuga customers now have their rehydration needs taken care of by Nuun.
Imagine being out on a long ride. Rather than settle for water or buy a sugary drink from a convenience store, you just fill up your water bottle and drop in a couple of nuun tabs. By the time you’ve put your helmet back on, you’ve got a complex electrolyte drink that recharges your salts, but is refreshing and more efficiently absorbed than water alone or most sports drinks on the market.

Accelerade
La Fuga is proud to have Accelerade as our nutrition partner and to offer their great range of energy drinks and gels on all our tours.
Accelerade is formulated using science — breakthrough, revolutionary science. That's how it became the first sports drink that combines carbohydrate and protein in a patented 4:1 ratio – a ratio that makes all the difference.
Accel Gels are the only ones on the market which feature the 4:1 carbohydrate/protein mix. Clinically proven to extend endurance over a standard carb-only gel they come in a range of great flavours including chocolate and key lime.
Mixing protein in with an energy drink in a 4:1 ratio has been shown to significantly improve endurance and recovery. Accelerade is hugely popular in the US and is now becoming available over here.
