<< I remember the past discussions on carbo loading and how it might possibly
be related to tying up. What about putting the Weight Gainers in with the
electrolytes DURING and after the ride? Would that still be considered
loading? Would it be helpful in depleting lactic acid build up? >>

Ron,

A. Tying up will not be a problem, no matter what you do in this regard.

B. The during and after approach is not glycogen loading, but mid-exercise
supplementation--a good idea--the Gatorade approach.
