I needed a ride for my R12, so at 3pm today I was sitting in a convenience store grill on my Yanceyville permanent, thinking-"so this is the perfect triangle of brevet food" (salty pringles, gatorade, and orange juice.)

It's fun to learn what's going on behind the scenes!<br /><br />I'm not the world's biggest fan of V8 mainly because I can't stand celery, but I can deal with it for the good stuff in there. As Doc on a bike said, you can sometimes find straight tomato juice & I believe he's right about the higher potassium/sodium levels.<br /><br />Solid food on a brevet is a good thing too!-bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09386010277515426563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8803144976327688451.post-62047558084679839142009-07-27T21:52:32.641-04:002009-07-27T21:52:32.641-04:00PB&B.

I always liked it, but never thought of trying it during exercise before. Thanks very much for the informative article.

Of interest, I once noticed that plain tomato juice (often available where V8 is also found) has even higher amounts of potassium and (I think) sodium.Doctor on a bikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11250964218105821633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8803144976327688451.post-28232042807425269482009-07-27T13:11:04.119-04:002009-07-27T13:11:04.119-04:00I'm a big fan of V-8 and have a note of intere...I'm a big fan of V-8 and have a note of interest: In the Pacific Northwest, V-8 was not always available at convenience stores. So on hot brevets, I sometimes bought two when I found them and carried the extra one with me. Here in North Carolina, I find V-8 at almost every convenience store store. I'm thinking that with the longer and hotter summers of the Southeast, convenience store customers, who naturally crave electorlytes, carbs, and sugars, find them in V-8 and therefore buy more V-8 than those who live in the mostly cooler Pacific Northwest. The convenience stores stock what sells. Unfortunately, V-8 is one of the few things convenience stores sell that is good for us, but that implies that V-8 satisfies a need that more processed foods and drinks haven't been able to quench. Yeah for V-8. The simple solution right right in front of us doesn't often win.<br /><br />Chuck Lathe<br />Franklinville, NCBearshark the Bonneville T100https://www.blogger.com/profile/16730558974618755017noreply@blogger.com
