Easton at Home: Alvin Talks Ride Snacks

Stashing snacks and other nutrition in your bar bag is important on any ride to make sure you avoid bonking. Alvin Escajeda of CNCPT TEAM drops his favorite ride snack on us - the Banana Oatmeal Things - prepared lovingly and off the cuff for the entire internet from his home base in LA!

Where do these bar bags full of snacks live when Alvin's out on a ride, you ask? Well, Alvin - and the whole CNCPT Team crew - use both EC70 AX and EC90 aero bars, depended on the bike in combination with our ICM stems. They also ride our Easton EC90 SL Cranks, EC70 AX wheels on their adventure rigs!

 

Alvin's adventure cockpit recipe:

EC70 AX bars, 42cm width
EA90 stem, 110mm w/ ICM
- Garmin Edge 1030
- Bar bag full of snacks
     

     

    Alvin's Banana Oatmeal Things! recipe:
    Ingredients:
    - 4 bananas – we think⁠
    - Almost 2 cups rolled oats ⁠
    - Sweet things (probably chocolate chips) measured diligently
    - Some walnuts in there⁠
      Also useful:⁠
      - A bowl⁠
      - A smasher⁠
      - An oven that goes to 385F⁠
      - Cupcake pan is a nice to have⁠
        15 minutes + 5 minutes prep time.⁠
