Pro 6011 Camp Hill, Pennsylvania | Subject: RE: What's in your drink bottle? Water in one bottle and 50/50 water/sports drink in the other. ETA - I'm assuming that by "long ride" you're talking 2 hours or more. Less than that, and it's only water for me.

Extreme Veteran 909 Westchester, NY | Subject: RE: What's in your drink bottle? I'm on the DL right now. But when I was riding, I'd have skratch in one bottle and infinit in my main hydration bottle. The infinit is their custom mixture that I created for me. |

Master 8247 Eugene, Oregon Bronze member | Subject: RE: What's in your drink bottle? Water with Nuun or Endurolyte fizz tablet. I like the less sweet flavors like lemon or lemon tea. (Cherry Limeade was great too but I only found it once.) Usually I do one 750 ml bottle with a higher concentration (whole tablet) and one with lower concentration (half tablet). I use the latter for washing down gu or solid food, and for later in the ride when I'm thirstier. If it's really hot, sometimes I fill an aerobottle with water, too. |

Regular 585 Pueblo, Colorado | Subject: RE: What's in your drink bottle? At the moment water only, and solid nutrition or gels (usually free samples of Powerbar, Hammer, etc. from races). Plan on doing a bit more experimenting during the coming year however, particularly with the liquid nutrition. |

| 409 Durham, North Carolina | Subject: RE: What's in your drink bottle? My long rides are only around 40-50 miles, but I just do water with a dash of salt. I still need to lose weight so that's why I stay away from Gatorade. I do clif shot bloks w/ caff about half way. Afterwards I have my chocolate milk (ovaltine is this just as good?) I'm a noob so feel free to let me know if I'm doing anything wrong. |

Member 166 Delco, PA | Subject: RE: What's in your drink bottle? Used to carry Gatorade, but now go with First Endurance EFS Drink. One 32-oz bottle of that and two 20-oz bottles of water. |

| 643 | Subject: RE: What's in your drink bottle? Gatoraid. It's cheap ($1/32oz) and a lot of races use it, so I race with that since it sounds like too much of a PITA to carry my own powered mix. |

Member 667 | Subject: RE: What's in your drink bottle? Well since I just crashed for the second time in two weeks I'm thinking there may be something other than water or Scratch in my bottle... |

Master 3205 ann arbor, michigan | Subject: RE: What's in your drink bottle? Two scoops of Infinit bike blend or Infinit custom plus one packet of UCan for right around 400 calories. This is my LC race and long day training fuel. |

I've bought into the separation of hydration from calories. I've found that I can better take in calories later in long races if I'm taking in the calories via gel and drinking nuun or water. |
