It's not my equation, it is recommended by sports medicine guys and
they know a thing or two about dehydration. I assume they
calculated for heavy riding where you pump out close to as much as
your body will give at the current weather conditions. Note they
say "per hour", not "per xx miles".

The same sports medicine guys who used to recomend that runners and
other athletes drink so much water during exercise that some runners
and athletes died of hyponatremia or water intoxication.

Or are those sports medicine guys getting a kickback from the energy
drink people?


Performance Bike getting kickbacks from energy drink people? Sometimes I
wonder just what you are smoking.

Well it's now legal in many states.


After what a driver in WA state told me, that legalization dropped my
confidence when riding on roads. "It was cool, man! I could ride all the
way across two states with no sleep, and the center line kinda flew over
the hood of the car!"
