Energy Drinks for riding?

[yellow400ex05]

What are the best energy drinks that keep you energized pumped and alert for riding? I keep thinking Red Bull would be good but i've never tried it.

Post some drinks that works good to keep you riding for many hours. Also post the links on the drink so we all can find some info on them.:macho

we had a guy here last year that would mix cappuhcino(sp)monster, red bull and coffee before everyfootball game and drink it....he was an absoloute animal...all over the field....i wouldnt reccomend anything like that....and im sure he wouldnt either after he felt the affects:eek2:

gatorade is definately a race day and pracitce day drink. Drink something that will replace your electrolytes. For energy drinks i drink Monster and Red Bull but there are others. Most energy drinks just pump your system full of caffeine, which is not good for racing. It is not good because it will dehydrate you. So your best bet would be to drink water and gatorade as water hydrates you and gatorade helps in replacing electrolytes and other vitamins that helps your body perform. I also drink this electrolyte replacement syrup that is called squincher. I mix it with a bottle of water and it helps quite a bit i think. If i drink it thoruhg the week leading up to a race i can tell a difference in arm pump. it is considerably less. but i ride a lot to so that does some of it also.

I tried a Sugar-Free Monster energy drink today :confused: Dunno what it does, but anyway...

tasted like a mountain dew but like....different...

I didn't get tired all day though...:D

[blastereatin250]

Propel is pretty good.

[SSracingNY]

monster, out teams sponsered by em, and gatorade is good

[Bush0102]

Sparks;)

had about 6 of those to start the night last night...they give you plenty of energy to stay awake so you can drink even more. A little to sugary for me though.


But my favorite energy drink that is legal for you to buy is Amp by mountain dew or Red Bull. They taste good, give you energy, and make one hell of a mixed drink.

red bull all the way just slam like 3 of them before the race and you should be good

it taste like sweethearts

[yellow400ex05]

What does monster taste like not mixed with Red bull?
My friend said that Redbull tastes like a supercharged sprite or something like that.

[RacinMason_690]

I think that both Monster and Red Bull taste like crap. And as for Sparks, the after affects of that arent good either.:eek2: haha

[450robot]

i drink propel all the time at races, it give ya energy, and it keeps you hydrated alot longer than water, and doesnt have that crappy after taste of gatorade, plus, imo gatorade makes me thirstier

[jb500ex]

try this for energy. energy drinks are a gimmick, they actually reduce your performance. propel is a good drink
