    97 with 90% humidity and it's building up to a thunderstorm which won't cool things down but will pop the
    humidity. Sometimes I hate summer. I freeze my FRS and used to freeze my accelerade but discov...

    I personally like FRS and get as much out of it as I do accelerade. FRS tastes better to me when it gets
    warm while accelerade seems to go chalky and kind of nasty. My favorite recovery drink is an ic...

    around here we have a name for the idiots who don't wear helmets- organ donors. Been through three

    I live in the outer suburbs of Southwest Houston and the general consensus for most of my rides in flat,
    hot, humid, headwinds and horrible drivers. That being said, once I get out of the burbs and on...

    My total of road bike and road hours for 2009 are 7500 miles and 550 hours. It's about one third more
    thanwhat I did last year but the southern tier from san diego to st augustine accounts for some of...

    I have been using FRS ever since it hit the market and swear by it. I prefer to buy the tubes of powder
