A New Energy Bar, The Dr. Will Bar

Dr. Will Bar: Locally (Portland) Made Energy Bars

Dr. Will Bar: Locally (Portland) Made Energy Bars

It’s interesting how life works. It wasn’t until I moved to Portland that riders from Tucson started telling me about the Dr. Will Bar. Then it took a visiting friend from San Diego to actually get me to try one, which lead to a chat with Will about his new energy bar. The Dr. Will Bar definitely covers a few issues with energy bars, the biggest of which is taste. It’s good but not over powering, some of the problems with the tasty bars is that when you start eating three a ride they quickly become too much and go from delicious to gag. It’s a subtle natural tasting energy bar that really has the staying power to get you through 80 hours of riding and over 30 bars in a month.  Although I am going to save some details for a later post I’d like to mention that for an energy bar the Dr. Will Bar contains a proper amount of healthy fats (read more about that here) including coconut oil.

I look forward to riding and training using the Doctor Will Bar as my energy bar. I’ll be headed down to San Diego, Tucson, Albuquerque, and Austin over the winter to try and shake off the Portland cold and I’m going to be bringing these with me to fuel the rides.

    Good to hear you’re riding and that you like the bars. How did El Tour go for you?
