Pure fat energy! 😅

    To make this post maybe a bit more serious, I‘m actually interested if you‘re using energy gels and what kind?

    I was quite skeptical of gels before trying them out, but now understand why everyone is using them. They just give you a great amount of energy over 30-45 min and you don‘t have that extreme sugar rush with the downfall afterwards if your blood sugar crashes again when drinking a Coke for example.

    In Europe there is a brand called „Squeezy“. They don‘t use a lot of additives and are supposed to be better for the stomach and for digestion during the ride. If someone had problems with this I would suggest trying this brand. 🙂 I really like em and have no digestive problems whatsoever with them.
