Thanks, I'll look into the Hammer, the bike store I stop at during my rides has asked what I drink/eat while riding and its mostly just plain old water. Every so often I'll do the Cliff bars or gel shots. One of the guys said I should be eating at least one bar every hour to keep the energy going combined with electrolytes and keep drinking. I think the other day I was dehydrated and over did it a bit with those extra hills? This weekend I plan to stay hydrated, pick up some Endurolytes, and eat a bit more than usual. Maybe even take my camelback out of retirement just for the long rides?
