Re: RC: Gu

["GESA BRINKS" <gesaeqfx@pe.net>]

I "like" Gu!!!!  It has saved my me a few times, and I dont think it tastes
all that bad.   Especially the chocolate.  I also like to use stuff like
"Quick shot"  or "Energ'C" you know those ginseng energizer thingys!  I have
started more than one race, not feeling so good (flu or cold....) and
finished feeling o.k.  Sometimes I was shocked I got thru the ride at all.
At Tevis I lived on Gu and electrolyte water.  Of course I got pulled at
Franciscos for time.  I was very sick when I started the ride and was kind
of surprised that I stayed in the saddle all day.  I give Gu and Essentia
water the credit for that.  Maybe being a hardheaded german  female made
part of the difference.
