Gel is great. I bought a box of Power Gel strawberry/banana and it isn't too bad to gag down.

Must have been Bonk Weekend because I was hammered after my Sunday ride. I think I was still a little dehydrated from my Saturday, "28 miles sprint through the foothills" ride. On Sunday, I was wearing my brand new Oakleys and started out way too fast. Came home after 46 miles & never really felt too well the rest of the day. You know that spacey feeling? I had it.

Not really a "bonk" in the sense that I couldn't ride, but was really glad to get out of the saddle.
