Hello

I have never done this before but when I was on a 100 mile ride back in June one of the rest stops was giving out some type of energy drink plus they were giving out Mountain Dew- Coke etc.

Just the thought of a soda while riding or excercise makes me want to hurl.

Now I do drink SF Redbulls when I get to work in the morning for a lift.

So does anyone here use  Redbull or some other drink/energy shot before a race?

Yeah, sometimes  I drink a can of redbull or some other energy drink before a race. i don't like coffee though, otherwise, i'd probably drink that. I'm not sure how well they work, but they don't seem to hurt me either.

I've heard from some men that they've drank it and then had to urinate shortly afterwards, so watch that. Any performance benefit you hope to get might be negated if you have to stop and go to the washroom.
