I use this in my second water bottle on days that are either very hot or if I'm going to be out for several hours. Also use them in my bottles when hiking for more than a few hours. The flavors are good without being overwhelming or artificial tasting. The mix dissolves easily enough and doesn't mess with my gut.
SKRATCH is a GREAT Product, been using it for years to prevent (god awful hamstring) cramps. Had been using their Lemon/Lime, which was great, flavor was there. More recently tried their Orange or shall I say "orange whisper", I see tiny specks of orange color and have yet to come across any orange flavoring - but it does keep the cramps away, which is the most important aspect. I ride about 6500 miles a year.
I use 1.5-2 scoops per water bottle on longer andor harder rides. Shorter (less than 2 hours) and easier rides, I just use tap water (we are on a well) and a pinch of sea salt. The Lemon Line taste good and has never caused any intestinal issues. So far, I have never bonked when using this product.
Both flavors of Lemon Lime and Orange taste great with no aftertaste. It is a bit expensive so stock up during the sale.
I like it better than Gatorade, and I *think* it's better for me as well. Have not run a head-to-head yet :)
Every workout
Great stuff. Not too sweet.
I use more elaborate concoctions in the heat, but this is the best packaged powder I have found.
Many other in drink mixes upset my stomach and I can not tolerate them on longer rides. This powder is a perfect mix - I can make multiple bottles for a long ride and drink it all day long with no stomach effects. It also seems to be absorbed by my body easier, I have never felt thirsty while using Skratch. I highly recommend this product.
contains enough potassium to avoid heat exhaustion. most big brand "sports drinks" have no potassium
I use skratch in my water bottle for cycling. It has a great taste & no upset stomach with this product. I have been using skratch products for quite some time.
I've used this for years - ever since it came out! Never upsets my stomach as it's not sugary, yet I stay hydrated and keep my energy level up.
Goes down well with no stomach upset
A perfectly balanced electrolyte with the properly balanced amount of calories.
One scoop per 22 oz of water and ice gets me through a 30 mile ride in the summer. It works very well, and tastes great.
Great price and value for Skratch! My go to on the bike hydration choice!!
Switched from Cytomax as I found it too sugary and gooey. I now use the Scratch Labs on every ride and so does my wife. We also use it at the gym. Good energy and easy to digest.
Enjoy it on my regular rides. And for my longer tours.
Use on 30 mile rides andor warm rides.... Taste is light & easy to drink. Would like to see more flavors in the 60 serving pouch... only able to order lemon .
Easy to drink and does the job well
