Sometimes, you want something different. When you figure out the correct baking time, you get potato with enough firmness to not turn into mashed potato in your jersey, but soft enough it's an easy bite. Some people I ride with stick to the standard old potato, some use those small red potatoes because they are bite sized already. Most of the people I ride with don't do 100% gels, so real food gets mixed in.
