Hi Jeff,
I live in Las Vegas and ride my road bike and otherwise exercise throughout the summer. I usually pour wet my clothes with a graden hose before setting off and with our low humidity, this works really well. Once my clothes dry up, I pour water onto my back, sports bra, gloves.
Taking electrolytes is an absolute necessity for me; I have tried just drinking water and I don't feel well at all. I searched the forum on electrolytes and came up empty. I'm currently using Skratch, which seems to be a pretty natural electrolyte mixture and it works great for me. However, it is expensive and I'm wondering if there are natural electrolyte mixtures I can easily make at home using fruits and/or vegetables. Any thoughts?
Thanks for all your great advice!
