Can it be done from basic household stuff
Robinsons Special R orange Juice + 2 Teaspoons of sugar + 1/4 teaspoon of salt?
or is this just stupid?
sounds alright to me.
It will taste a bit like spunk, maybe your wife will like it?
lol @ penrod
60 g of glucose powder
1 litre of water
salt to taste
lime cordial.
I have used half OJ, half water with a pinch of salt (should be able to [i]just[/i] taste the salt).
And make sure it's OJ with out the 'bits' if you're drinking it through a nozzle.
apple juice / water 1/3 : 2/3 plus a good pinch of salt per litre and a teaspoon of sugar if you want extra calories
Lime cordial
Honey
Salt
[u]Dont[/u] put it in a camelback.
I find beer works pretty well:
High water content rehydrates.
Carbs for energy.
Hops make it thirst quenching.
Alcohol numbs the pain.
Readily and widely available in numerous variants.
Just the job, but I wouldn't put it in a camelback.
A Vitamin C tablet dropped into my bottle then filled up with council pop works for me a treat.
My metabolism was lousy on early morning rides till I started doing this drink - works well for me.
Seems to give me energy whatever time of the day.
Penrod - How do you know this?
Here's a linky to some info on home made energy drinks but you will need to go shopping so probably off topic

Oatmilk + 2 liquidised bananas + salt + date syrup 🙂
Half fresh orange half flat coke works a treat
Swamp boy has it. Beer is the finest post ride drink there is. SCIENCE FACT!
However. Stella in a Hydrapak was a bad experience on many levels.
