Great for energy replenishment

I use this product as directed, taking 1 every 45 minutes during my rides. I prefer the ones with caffeine that my friend who is a personal trainer recommended. Helps to keep me fueled and stave off cramps.

Thank you for your feedback.

BIKETIRESDIRECT has the products I need, at a great price and is quick and reliable.

When I am out on a 60+mile ride I like a quick easy pick up on the way home, its easy to use in a small flask or small amounts for a short ride home at the end of the work day.

Thank you for your feedback.

Ideal consistency

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.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great Taste, Easy to Eat

I usually buy the "Chocolate Outrage" version because, well, I like chocolate. I'm glad I tried the Tri-Berry . . . it goes down more easily (always need a good drink of water after the chocolate, and some after Tri-Berry, but less so) and the taste is just fine.

Thank you for your feedback.

It just works

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.

Thank you for your feedback.

Just works

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.

Thank you for your feedback.

A great product at a great price!

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.

Thank you for your feedback.

Chocolate mint

Pretty much what you'd expect, like a gooey peppermint patty. Would buy again!

convenient easy carry

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.

Thank you for your feedback.

Sure Seems to give me a needed boost before and midway thru my ride.

These Gels are hard to find in any quanity at bicycle shops or sports supply places. The price thru BTD is cheaper than buying a handful of them whenever I find them in my flavor. The price of a box of them thru BTD is great!

Thank you for your feedback.

I use the GU energy gels on my interval training. They are like rocket fuel for me and allow me to sustain the long intervals.

I use the gels for a quick energy boost on my training and group rides. No need to stop as the are easily accessible from my pockets and to eat while riding.

Thank you for your feedback.
