Cheers, I (roughly) based my mix on what's in Torq et al. It works for me apart from the fact I'm using Dextrose at the moment rather than Fructose, it's so bloody sweet it makes me feel like my teeth are going to rot out.
I add a scoop of whey after I've ridden and it becomes a pretty good post ride recovery drink too.
This is also interesting http://www.pponline.co.uk/encyc/0014.htm
It says that more than one kind of carb will help regardless of what they are.
Fructose is also available in Boots btw if you want to try that.
Vitargo- quite cheap, full of calories
I never thought of trying Boots, I usually get it from myprotein, but when I needed it they didn't have it in stock. So I tried Dextrose, much to my dentist's glee.
I think they sell fructose for diabetics.
I like the berry flavoured Powerbar drink mix. Tried it at Whinlatter Enduro last year and two cups got me round that bugger of a climb at the end of the lap.
Rockstar FTW
