I usually take two servings at the rest stop in the middle of the ride and two at the end . I like the taste especially the vanilla, chocolate and peanut butter flavors. I use the gels because I have angina and cannot digest bulky food without feeling distress on the rest of the ride.
Perhaps
Like product and use on my road bike rides
I like the gu for a snack on one hour rides
Great tasting! Just what you need for those long rides.
A good boost on a 50 mile ride.
I use 2 Gu's and if I haven't eaten recently I have a Cliff Bar too.
That keeps my energy up on the last 45 min home stretch.
Compact in size and a great energy booster!
I am very impressed with this product. I use it on my long rides, it is very effect. Good price and very compact.
Excellent! Love the caffeine content in this!
These are good gel packs for last miles pick-me-up.
I typically have one just before I start riding; always have along to forestall the dreaded bonk.
I rode across the country last year and lived on those gels. I tried them all and GU is the best. Great tastes and good consistency. Not too solid and not too liquid. Eat one every ten miles and the engine keeps going.
Good taste with a boost
It tastes great and does the job. What more could I ask from an energy gel?
We tried out the Salted Caramel. It only has the taste of a hint of vanilla. Consistency is OK, not too thick.
I've tried different brands and flavors but GU salted caramel is my favorite.
I fell an energy boost about 10 mins. after one of these on a 30 mile ride.
Mocha flavor tastes good.
Gu has always given me a boost, the price gave me even more of a good boost
Of all of the energy gels, GU are consistently my favorite. I don't think they work any better or worse than anyone else's product. I just prefer the flavor and consistency of GU gels to the other options.
I always bought gu energy gel. Nothing else.
