Good stuff
bought a box on sale, great fast energy gets me riding!
The numbers don't lie. Speed
Increased .7 mph while hawing this as directed.
I use it every ride. I thought coconut water was best. Maybe it is. But I'm so impressed with this stuff. I bought 2 big boxes.
I was doubtful at first but the numbers don't lie. My average speed increased .6 mph while using this stuff as directed. Taste great. The caffeine boost is nice. I always swore coconut water is best. But this with the coconut water seems to work great. I bought 2 big boxes of this stuff. I use it every ride.
My only peeve with this and like products is that it gets everywhere (your cloths, bag, gloves, and your hands). Maybe there is a neat way of consuming this. I wouldnt mind sucking on something that could easily be resealed. It is not worth the hassle for me though.
If the packaging was dynamic and you could easily select the correct size you wanted, then emptying one of these in a go would be nearly prefect. Yet you have to think about delivery time and hand time. Especially for cycling, I would like to keep my hands on the handle bars and spend only a bit of time grabbing comforts (food, what have you not).
Easy to carry. Tastes great. Works as advertised. Takes time to get all product out of container. Sticky if gets on hands. Packaging is messy to dispose of.
I always enjoy a Gel while stretching out & hydrating before a ride. Then another at some point along my bicycling route. They seem to give me a bit of an edge during my rides. Buying them by the box guarantees I'll have them even when they are unavailable at sports stores or my local bicycle shop. Mandarin orange seems to be a popular flavor and absent from stores.
These are as good as Clif Shots.
Different brands and flavors of gel sit differently in each individual's stomach. Gu seems to be the best for me. The birthday cake flavor tastes like cake icing. I'm rarely out of dessert but I bet it would work in a pinch.
Tasty with a spike of caffeine helps to finish strong on an endurance rides. They're my go to gel.
convenient easy to carry energy for the long rides. only slight draw back is carrying sandwich bag for empties as I am not a litter bug (can not stand them). Cola flavor makes me think of RC Cola.
Best gel on the market
Pretty much what you'd expect, like a gooey peppermint patty. Would buy again!
I use GU Gels on every ride. They are easy to consume while riding and I typically consume one every 30-45 minutes. The GU Gels are easy to digest and provide the extra energy to maintain good performance.
I get the desired boost of energy from these GU Gels without ever a hint of stomach distress. Never tried a flavor I didn't like.
take product on longer rides 30miles easy to store a few in shirt pocket. taste good digests quickly and easily. only need to carry sandwich bag to carry waste packaging in please do not litter as can be a little sticky after use.
use it for when I am cycling, somewhat sweet tasting
I use 1 before I ride and 1 mid ride
I've been using these gels for a few years now. I enjoy the flavor and the energy boost they deliver! Great product!
One of the GU flavors that I don't seem to get tired of...well, the Espresso one too !!
