RatioVelo: Cycling Nutrition

Tell us about you and your ride and we'll tell you what to carry in your bottles and pockets, and when. With or without a power meter. Connect Apple Health if you like.

RATIO turns your ride into a fueling plan: what goes in each bottle, what to eat and at which minute, and where to stop to refill. Before your first plan it asks for what moves the figures — your weight, how much you sweat and what your stomach tolerates — and your FTP if you have a power meter. Every figure says what it is based on.

WHAT YOU GET

• What to carry: one, two or three bottles of any size, with water or a product in each, pocket food and an optional concentrated flask.
• When to take it: every intake at its minute, and at its kilometer when you ride a route.
• Where to refill: stops placed so you don't run dry before the finish.
• Carbs, fluid and sodium per hour, adjusted to your effort and the heat, from your route, your location or a temperature you enter.
• Caffeine timing, only if you ask for it, with a margin before bedtime.

YOUR ROUTE, TURNED INTO A PLAN Upload a GPX or just say how long, how hard and where you'll ride. RATIO places each intake on the elevation profile, names the climbs and estimates your arrival time.

ON THE BIKE Download the route with its intakes as a FIT or GPX file for your Garmin or Wahoo, send it to your Wahoo account, or take the top tube note with your timings.

APPLE HEALTH Connect Apple Health to bring in your weight, sleep and rides, and to save what you ate and drank on each ride to the Health app. It is optional: RATIO works without it.

AFTER THE RIDE Log what you actually ate and drank in two taps, say how it sat with your stomach and get a fueling score. Your carb ceiling learns from your rides. An optional reminder nudges you an hour after your planned finish, and with Apple Health you can get a notice when a ride reaches the Health app.

REAL FOOD, NOT JUST GELS Pick everyday foods such as bananas, dates and bars. Add your own products and homemade drink mixes, including a concentrated flask recipe.

FOR EVERY RIDER With or without a power meter. Road, gravel or sportives. Light and dark themes. English and Spanish.
