The topic of this thread might be turned into a forum if it is popular enough. It is about how to keep hydrated when out riding or things that can be done before you go riding. If anyone has anything at all to do with this topic post it here. Eg: Food, energy bars, Gu's, sports drinks, recipes, how to tell when you are dehydrated, ect.
Here are some that i have found that work a treat.
• 1/4 cup butter, melted, or oil
• 4 large eggs; beaten
• 1 cup flour
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 cup nonfat milk powder
• 3/4 cup rolled oats
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 3/4 cup sugar or brown sugar
• 2 cups chopped raisins or dried fruit
• 2 1/2 cups walnuts; chopped
• 3/4 cup chocolate chips (optional)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9x13 pan. Beat together eggs and oil, sift together dry ingredients except fruit. Add flour to eggs, combine, then stir in fruit, nuts, and chips. Spread evenly in pan, bake 30 minutes, they are still soft when done. Cool, cut into 24 pieces, wrap in foil and freeze.

• 3 cups rolled oats, barley, or wheat
• 2 1/2 cups nonfat milk powder
• 1/2 package Jell-O powder, citrus
• 1 cup sugar
• 2 tablespoon honey
• 3 tablespoon water
Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Heat together water and honey, stir in Jell-O powder. Stir dry ingredients together, stir in Jell-O water, mix well. Then add additional water 1 tablespoon at a time, just until mixture can be formed into two bars. Dry in oven, wrap in foil to store. Each bar is 1000 calories. May be eaten as is, or cooked in a pint of water.
