    [RC] re: hydration/human - Cindi Hein


    I don't know who posted about being sick on rides and maybe heat. Who was that?
    I too have the same problem. And it's a pain in the butt!!
    I know I don't drink enough. That is still my goal is to DRINK plenty.
    I cannot eat in the heat. Then I get a headache and a VERY upset stomach. Basically feel terrible.
    I'm trying new things this year. I got some Carbo-charge (I think that's what it's called) and some Gu.
    Today while at work I tried what someone suggested, 1/2 tea and 1/2 lemonade - ummm - good!


    I have major problems at multi-day rides. I stop eating around day three and get so sick! But, I keep riding. But that was before the Gu and Carbo powder.
    I know the subject was brought up before but, what other good electrolyte drinks are out there? My stomach hates gatorade.
    I just bought some stuff called, ERG. Doesn't taste very good but, I'll give it a try.
