If I had been forthright up front and written "I received this booklet from a sports nutrition company that claims...", I doubt the discussion would have been as lively, or as informative. So please pardon the bit of subterfuge. Give it up. You weren't trying to elicit discussion and new info. You were trying to prove you were right and educate people with what you believed and end it there. Didn't work. JT |

Even I have trouble doing that sometimes. Thank you for the spirited discussion, and I hope you realize that I was aiming "above the neck". -- terry morse Palo Alto, CA http://bike.terrymorse.com/ |

If you practiced proper hydration and feeding you would have gone faster, or done the rider more easily. Two hours doesn't require a feed. Just liquids depending on weather and how tanked up you were to start. Ron |

You're right, he would've gone further if he'd eaten more. Probably should've brought an egg fu young with him in a zip-lock and eaten it between miles 37 and 42. Ron |
