Calf cramping

So the last several fast group rides I have gone on, I start getting cramps in my calves at about the hour and a half point. I know the obvious answer is that I am not hydrating properly, but I feel like I am fairly careful. Typically the first hour I drink water, and then switch to energy drink after. I try to keep some sport beans or gu in my jersey, and that seems to help delay the onset... but two weeks running its been the same problem.

Any idea what I have been missing?
