When I first tried the sports gels out... I bought a bunch of different brands and flavors... to see what was best.
For me... the PowerBar, Power Gel, Respberry Cream... was the winner!

I love the idea of the flask. we just bought some, and haven't tried them yet. I haven't done a long enough ride yet!! I usually need a gel by about 1 1/2 hours (so if I plan to be out for 4, I take one before I *need* it)...
I hate that sticky little-kid-caught-with-ice-cream-all-over-her-face feeling after sucking them back! I'm all for washing any off at home, if it is still messy...
And my total plan was to mix caffeine and non-caffeine flavours together. you never know which shot will give you the KICK!
I don't think we can get Gu here. Our favourite shop has something else, but I can't remember what it is. I'll be sure to try it and let you know what it compares to...
Namaste!
