Will give that a try. What about electrolytes?

skinny in reply to @Hovis

I have some, but only use if it's warm or a big big ride. I eat a good diet and get enough salts from that really.

I use a High 5 tab to flavour; you need something with the malto/fructose mix as it tastes of nothing.

You are likely to have finished the session before anything hits your blood stream anyhoo but the carb mouthwash effect might help a bit. AIS just use boiled sweets to do same thing.

add a pinch of salt

I do the same but with maltodextrin and dextrose.

Sometimes add some lemon juice for a bit of flavour
