Hi Smurf...
I have just the thing for you in this link below (E-Lyte Sport)...

I can not stand the taste of sweet drinks. This stuff doesn't have that, or the sugary calories. Just the salty good stuff. You can pre-load shots, dilute it and mix your own bottles, etc. Plus, if you wanted extra on the ride, you could technically carry some in a small travel size container. Maybe something like those tiny screw cap bottles peeps use for the airplane for shampoo etc. in a jersey pocket. Re-mix a bottle on re-fill, shot, etc.
If you don't like the salty taste so much I think maybe adding a lemon wedge to the bottle, or squeezing some juice in might be a way to add flavor you like. I just do it salty straight up as is.
As far as the guy riding pal... women in general have more body fat (we need it to protect us for bearing babies etc. genetically). The more fat insulation you have on your body, the more you need to sweat to cool yourself off. Our hormones at different times of the month can sometimes play into how hot or cold we feel too (& if retaining H2O, or shedding it in your cycle)--something men don't have to deal with.
Hope this helps some!
