Took in 2 bottles of Nuun, but could have used a bit more fluid with the heat. I'll have to plan better next time for a hot ride.
I am impressed. I struggled with a 50 mile ride, had 4 bottles of water and Nuun and felt parched. This morning, the scale says I've lost nearly 3 lbs (I did eat during the ride, 2 Clif mini bars and a banana, had nice meals). I need to acclimate to the heat!
