Subject: RE: Newbie Q: electrolyte replacement drink vs. gel Well you will get a variety of answers, but this is what I do......you will probably have to experiment a little and see what works for you and what you prefer.
Typically on a longer run or running during a race. I use the clif shots wash them down with some water (you should drink water with these not electrolyte drink ). When I'm riding I usually have one bottle water and one electrolyte drink. I prefer to drink electrolyte drink while riding but when its hot I also use the water to cool my body off. Clif Shots are easy to carry and great if you don't have access to electrolyte drinks. I do occasionally use clif shots while riding, but more for running....
Like I said everyone does it a little differently.....
