"Scientists agree: Coffee naps are better than coffee or naps alone"

I had heard about coffee naps but thought that the coffee simply worked as an alarm clock. Instead, I found the science and the potential benefits of coffee naps to be quite interesting, and I tried a few on my trip. I have to admit that in each of three tries I only reached a tranquil half-asleep stage, but even that was noticeably helpful. As a moderately old guy, I will admit that I can take a late morning nap AND a mid-afternoon nap if I haven't slept well the previous night. ZZZZ. On this trip, I took a short, coffee-induced late morning nap and it entirely blocked my desire for the mid-afternoon nap. I was impressed. Check out the link.
They are genuine. Afternoons, around 3 pm, are the worst. Slam some coffee, nod off for 20 minutes, after which the caffeine kicks in, and you'll be quite alert for several more hours.

There is a point where coffee won't work any longer, and that's the time to stop riding.
