Sports drink question

When I go for rides longer than an hour I us a sports drink (Accelerade) to dehydrate and get electrolytes and carbs. I also eat energy bars/gels (clif bars, power gell, gu etc.) about once an hour to supplement this. I find that I end up with a lot of GI distress later in the day (gas & bloating). Am I doing something wrong?? If so, what?? What SHOULD I be dong??
