I must have popped a Gu packet sometime recently on one of my crashes. I went to clean out the Camelback and couldn't pull anything out of the small pocket. On further investigation, I had my first aid kit and about 4 other Gu packs stuck in a ball at the bottom of the pouch. Took a little digging with a butter knife to keep from ripping all the other packets open. That stuff sticks well! Who knows how long that sat there but it was baked in pretty good. Been riding in the mid afternoons a lot so it beens getting a lot of heat on a regular basis.
Lesson learned for me, check the stuff more often dummy!
That is all, happy riding.

thats not good

haha... that'll learn you to eat that stuff!

I found an end-of-season bananna one spring when I reached into my bag. At least I think that's what it was!

Isn't that gu fun to get stuck on your hands...and pants...and shirt...and doorknob....

and sink, and car door handle and golf clubs, and cell phone. Though I got the offender out of the way yesterday. Grabbed a few Gu's and headed to the golf course this morning. Had them out in the sun and went to grab my cell when the wife called and found it covered in 100 deg. chocolate. Apparently one of the ones I grabbed was also split. Makes for a nice mess to get off the phone.

Happens, this just proves that gel is evil.

every time I eat Gu it is one hour before my ride is over and I'm searching fantically for a bathroom or TP and a tree.

why eat those gels and energy bars. just eat real food. it tastes better.
