    He's a BOY, Lisa (granted, a sorta old boy) -- probably don't want to know how he'd know what armpit sweat tastes like!

    Aside from being warm by the time I got around to it today, I didn't notice any "armpit flavor" in the bottleful I had with me on this afternoon's ride!

    But I'm not very keen on warm water of any kind...

    Which flavor do you have? Cola is my favorite(I am a bit of a freak.... last year when it was getting near 100 here I was making NUUN -soycream floats), followed closely, I think, by Berry. I burned out on lemon lime flavored stuff a long time ago, due to it being the most prevalent sports drink flavor out there... so I don't buy that one. The new Ginger-citrus is awfully good though - and nice on the tummy if you are feeling queasy.

    I drink mine a little diluted when I'm riding, and I thought the Cola and Berry flavors were kind of nasty diluted, so I stick with the Lemon Lime now. Boring, I know, but it doesn't bug me. I'll have to try the Ginger Citrus though. That could be pretty good.

    Another option is Elete, which probably does tastes like armpit sweat. It's "flavorless", so all you taste is the salt. In small doses, hardly noticeable. But don't drink it straight.
    I don't crash so much anymore (less blood on the trail), so just call me Stephanie

    I'll tell you what I think of bicycling. I think it has done more to emancipate women than any one thing in the world. I rejoice every time I see a woman ride by on a bike. It gives her a feeling of self-reliance and independence the moment she takes her seat; and away she goes, the picture of untrammelled womanhood. ~ Susan B. Anthony

    I picked up some of the ginger citrus and the berry to try first. I've only tried the ginger citrus one so far, and it's a nice flavor - cold, anyway. Warm, to me, nothing tastes real good!

    Nuun floats, eh? interesting idea!
