I redlined it at the start and the first lap and then died on the second lap trying to recover. It is always nice to have challenges during a race, keeps you fresh!Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18424727577109673222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11144663.post-60712372173199236032007-09-25T09:14:00.000-05:002007-09-25T09:14:00.000-05:00I too pretty much gave up eating on the bike long ...I too pretty much gave up eating on the bike long ago. I end up with sticky mess on my hands. I try do to some shot blocks or a clif shot before the race. Luckily my WORS races are relatively short. At WEMS races I'll just stop for a clif shot if I need to, or eat it as I am walking the bike up a hill. Walking is an excuse to stretch the back and eat. <BR/><BR/>I won a flask once at a WEMS race, but like you, I often forgot to take it. You have to remember to fill it and put it in the fridge between races, instead of just leaving it in a race bag. It didn't always come that easily out of my jersey pocket, either, it would get kinda stuck, once it got sticky.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Someone needs to come up with a good shot block dispenser.velogrrlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14264168671671364158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11144663.post-60045309593209911772007-09-24T14:25:00.000-05:002007-09-24T14:25:00.000-05:00i coughed the cheer pack all over my bike. it was...i coughed the cheer pack all over my bike. it was sticky. when i came back from watching the elite race there were bees all over it. i just put my gel flask in my backpack.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03625170941880982325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11144663.post-71351500730705329502007-09-24T14:12:00.000-05:002007-09-24T14:12:00.000-05:00I gave up trying to eat solid foods while racing a...I gave up trying to eat solid foods while racing a long time ago.<BR/><BR/>The gel flasks work way better than the packets (unless, of course they are on your desk at work). I still end up wearing most of it, but I manage to get some in the old "pie hole" It's really quite embarrassing.bubbahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18099348319640849222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11144663.post-60903840436839138542007-09-24T10:23:00.000-05:002007-09-24T10:23:00.000-05:00I cant eat either while racin.... hard to do when ...I cant eat either while racin.... hard to do when your in zone 5 the entire race...<BR/><BR/>Nice job.....Danohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14932290410576111792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11144663.post-53146665206840383622007-09-24T09:23:00.000-05:002007-09-24T09:23:00.000-05:00that's why i love the hammer flask. plus i mix in...that's why i love the hammer flask. plus i mix in a little water to make it all go down easier.Tom Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13455695224246189577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11144663.post-85900660226795345552007-09-24T03:18:00.000-05:002007-09-24T03:18:00.000-05:00Nice job on the good parts of the race.
