TR, Any recommendations on Electrolytes, I have been using Nuun and Skratch and would like other suggestions. Nuun: not really loving the taste. Skratch: too much sugar.

Make your own, tastes how you want then. There’s an Empirical Cycling podcast with a recipe but you have to bulk buy the ingredients but they’ll last you a long time.

i have used Skratch since Lim released to the public. Started added additional sodium as I need more. Still plan on trying Precision Hydration 1500 when get closer to possible racing. Or when it gets hotter.

I like the Precision Hydration 1500. I just started with it in the fall, so not a lot of hot days to truly test it, but my d…

How many grams of Maltodextrine / Fructose do you do on your water bottles?

That all depends on the duration and intensity of the ride. But my absolute max when it’s like a 3 hour smashfest is 100g maltodextrine + 50g fructose in an 800ML bottle. Usually aim for about 2 bottles per 3 hours, so that would get me 100g of carbs / hour. Anything over that and my gut starts to d…

I’ve just started using the same one from Bulk Powders. I don’t mind it as is, or add a squeeze of lemon juice. Seems to be working well so far.
