Today I came across this type of electrolyte replacement. Looks quite promising to me and much less expensive than the Shot Bloks. Check it out:

Have you looked at the comparison chart on their website?
I need the hard stuff.
Plus I like watching the Nunn tabs fizz.
The whole propylene glycol/antifreeze in nunn tabs freaks me out and I can't drink them.Quote:

Yes, I did check out the comparison chart (I like it. Kinda feel like I'm buying Progressive Insurance with the comparison chart.).Quote:

Heh.
In the course of my lifetime that may be one of the least toxic substances I've ingested.
Next time we meet up I'll bring you a small jar of pickled garlic (over 9 yrs. old) and a quart of Prestone to wash it down. ;)Quote:

So, I'm going for a fitting for a new bike purchase today, which means I will probably be out test riding a new bike. And it's freaking 90 degrees out there today. Of course this will happen in mid-afternoon when the sun is high.
And then I will go back to work, all sweaty and disgusting.
I was supposed to do this on Tuesday, when the weather was beautiful, but had to reschedule due to another freakish allergic response involving big patches of red, itchy skin.
I hope the new bike is so fabulous that I don't notice the heat!!
p.s. I'm looking at a Madone 4.5. The goal is a better fit than my current (aluminum) bike, but I might as well upgrade to carbon while I'm at it.
I hope you enjoy the ride. I rode the 5.1 and I'm planning on getting the 5.5.Quote:

Predicted high tomorrow is "only" 86. It hit 99 today!!
Stupid me went for her first ride in like two months today. 45 miles. On my surly with its fat tires. Which officially is a bike I'm selling, because OWW. The fact that it has flame stickers and I picked every part and built it myself and all that nostalgia is no reason to keep a bike that just doesn't fit right for long rides.
But it was a fun ride. I forgot to take off my undies beneath my bike shorts 'cause I wasn't making good decisions today unfortunately, so OWWIES.
For the last 17 miles it felt like alien monsters were trying to rip their heads out of my calves.
That post is useless without pictures.
