To the OP what my learned collegues are trying to convey is this.

 

Energy drinks are weird what works for some doesnt work for others, youll have to try them and see which one works best for you personally.

 

I personally prefer Hammer, because its a mix of complex natural carbs, and its not very sweet. The longer you ride the sweeter your drink gets for some reason.

 

32gi works great for some doesnt work at all for others basically becuase to use 32gi if you cant take in any other kind of sugar i.e. sugar in your coffee before you ride, no sugar in your serial, and no glass of coke at the water point. If you do it renders the stuff useless.

 

Now that i have bought a new bike and is a poor again, im using evox, but only for a pre ride drink, while i ride i only use water, but long distance races ill still use hammer perpetium (unflavoured) doesnt taste like much but works like a charm.

All true covie , 32gi works for me though.

Hammer i'll try too...

Not only was my 1st bike a mountain bike, it was also the 1st mountain bike to land on African soil.

Mmmmm,let's just assume it was, so where does this leave us ?

 

It leaves us with Enduren as the energy drink to use.
