Heat injuries and food

[Susan Otcenas]

Also if you are riding over 3 hours, you should be taking in protein also(I get eggs at a gas station if I have a chance to stop, since protein mix doesn't sit well in the Florida heat in a bottle and bars tend to melt).

Have you tried Perpetuem Solids? I love Perpetuem in my bottles on my long rides, but in hot weather, the bottles can get skunky. Perpetuem Solids solves this problem. I can have plain water (or a carb-only mix like Heed) in my bottles, and get some protein from the Solids.
