At XACT Nutrition, we live for stories like this—where passion meets purpose and community fuels the journey. Right now, @alexis__cartier, is rewriting what endurance looks like. And we’re proud to ride alongside him, every mile of the way.
From Start Line to Skyline: A Journey Fueled by Grit
This season, Alexis isn’t just racing—he’s going full send across North America. His goal? Tackle six legendary gravel races, but with a twist: he’s biking to every single one. That’s over 8,700 miles under his own power. No support cars, no shortcuts—just determination, curiosity, and a whole lot of pedals.
“I feel it's time to redefine sporting excellence in the context of an ecological crisis.”
— Alexis Cartier
His ride is a reminder: endurance isn't just physical. It's emotional, environmental, and deeply human.
The Ultimate Test: Unbound 200
On May 31, Alexis will face one of the toughest and most prestigious endurance races in the world: the Unbound Gravel 200. This isn’t just a race—it’s 200 miles of relentless, remote terrain across the Kansas Flint Hills. Dusty, demanding, and absolutely iconic.
It’s the kind of test that demands more than fitness. It demands mindset. Grit. Fuel that actually works.
A Bar Built for the Long Haul
We are currently piloting a prototype bar designed specifically for long-lasting efforts—and Alexis is giving it the u
ltimate test. Built for steady energy, it features a balanced mix of carbs, fats, and protein, and a lower glycemic index to help prevent crashes. It's soft, easy to eat on the move, and designed to support athletes through sustained, high-output efforts.
“I am not joking,
they are the best bars I ever ate.
The ingredients list was nice too.
I preferred the red berries slightly, but it was nice to have both and mix it up.
Not sure what else to review, but yeah, the taste is something special.”
Real feedback, from a real rider, doing something extraordinary.
