Biggest negative/down side for me is that High5 muck.
I reached for a piece of my homemade energy bar at about mile 40 and tromboned all my food for the day onto the road.
Then at about mile 60 my bottle bobbled out of the cage and accross the road.
So I had to do most of the race with the High 5 waters and gelson offer, which is just junk.
I feel like I have been poisoned.
It is so so chemically, sugary that my beard and hands and bike and gloves were covered in a sticky film of syrup.
Rank.
