I do use Endurox (drink supplement), both during and after the ride, which has been a lifesaver for me.

As for turning 40, tried that 4 years ago; didn't work .

Thanks for giving me a lot to think about.
I just had a question for you. I could not tell from the above. If you know this, just ignore me. I don't know all the different drink supplement names cause I use one that you can only get on the internet that works for me (I have digestive issues with products like endurox) There is a real difference between sports drinks that you use during exercise and ones for after exercise. Make sure you are using an after exercise drink. This will help you hold weight better than just drinking more of the during exercise drink. jan
