Pacific Health Labs Accel Gel (Vanilla) (24 | 1.3oz Packets)
Based on the advice of a salesman at a local bike shop I purchased Accel Gel. I took 3 gels on a recent 77 mile bike ride. That was the first time I tried a bike ride longer than 60 miles. At about mile 55 I started feeling fatigued. Someone in my group asked me if I had any gels and I remembered I had 3 in my back pocket. I took the first Accel Gel and, after 5-10 minutes started feeling strong again. I definitely felt the difference. At about mile 70 I took a second Accel Gel and felt great and strong enough to finish the ride. A short while later, one of the strongest guys in my group started falling behind and was getting dropped. I slowed down to help him finish. I offered him my last Accel Gel and he accepted. He had slowed down to 12-13 mph but then he increased his speed to 19-20 mph. He was very surprised at the effect he had felt after taking the gel. I must say I am very impressed with Accel Gel and plan to take 3 gels on every ride.
