Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

I started gagging, hacking and coughing. Then took out my bottle and tried to gargle the insect out. My fellow riders (cycling seniors) started yelling omg, omg, should we call 911, are you ok? Then i realized i had ruby red hawaiian punch in my bottle and still couldn't talk because i was laughing and gagging. This upset people even more. Still couldn't talk, but they were relieved when i poured some punch out of my bottle.

I thought it was funny at the time.

I use the 3:2:1 Hydration base. 28g of carbs per serving. Maltodextrin, Sucrose, and Fructose are all absorbed at different rates, so in theory you have a constant carb supply.
