Values given are comparisons of CHO oxidation from various sources over the third hour of the 3 h ride between 80 g h−1, 90 g h−1 and 100 g h−1 glucose: fructose ingestion. [1st line: mean ± s.d., absolute difference between conditions with associated 95% confidence intervals; 2nd line: Cohen’s d effect size and P value (ANOVA with Bonferroni post hoc comparison)]
