I agree Rasberry is my favorite flavor- I was making my own sports drink until I tried gu20. Do not care for gatorade

Glad you like it!  A lot less sweet than other stuff, and still gets the job done.

I'm a Lemon Lime guy myself.  Was not all that enthusiastic about the Orange, but it was okay.

I really like it, too.  It's not as sticky and my throat never gets that weird feeling like Gatorade.  I like the Lemon Lime myself.

Gosh, I wish you lived close so I could kick my twice used jug over the fence to you.  I can't stand the taste.  It's Heed all the way for me.

If you like GU2O, try HEED. Especially the unflavored variety...

I will say, though, that my new favorite energy gel is a GU product... The new Roctane in the Blueberry-Pomagranate flavor is awesome.

That is my race day flavor.  Other workouts it is Lemon Sublime or Triberry.

I'm a big fan too.  On tango mango now - went through lemon lime quickly earlier this season.

what I don't like about the gu2o is how it doesn't mix well  - turns into "taffy" in colder water

Love GU20!!  Raspberry and Orange.  It mixes really well with Carbo Pro, which is my race day cocktail.  And yah, never could put my finger on why it doesn't mix as well with cold water!

I have lemon lime right now. That's pretty good. I'm gonna get rasberry next. I had all the energy and felt really good towards the middle to end of my race. Next time I need to drink BEFORE the swim too.

 and roctane, do you guys get a rush from all that caffeine? that's the only thing I'm worried about since I'm not a caffeine drinker.

 Gu needs to make a sports bean!
