Professional's Nutrition on Bike Can't Post

After watching many of the professionals at different IM events, I began to wonder where they keep their nutrition and liquids? It seems in the IMWC in 07, Macca kept nutrition in his jersey, but did not see anything else on that anybody was carrying. I guess living off the course is the other option, but as particular as they are, I doubt that is the answer. As far as fluids, many carry one water bottle. Do they just use the GE provided and refill when needed? Again, unless everyone uses GE, where is the other stuff and what is it? It seems like they would be way short on calories, but that's obviously not true.

I would love to see what the pros actual nutrition schedule is during an IM. What products? How much? How often?
