Torq Gels

Knocked out another 4 hour ride yesterday my 2nd in 6 days with a couple of 50 milers inbetween including a 2up 10 with Tim B during one of them, anyway i'm not normally a fan of gels, after consuming them you can either throw the wrapper away littering the countryside or put the sticky mess back in you pocket, quite windy yesterday, well i thought it was as i was below 15mph in places on the flat, nearing 3hrs ridden and already munched 2 torq bars it was time to resort to the gel, out the other side of Halesworth knowing i was soon to get a tail wind down the gel went, soon after my pulse perked up abit and i seemed to have fresh legs all of a sudden, i rode back from Halesworth not just in the big ring but in the middle of the cassette attacking the little hills on route, once back to Bungay with 3.45 on the clock i quickly added the 6 mie Ellingham Mill loop at 20's to make my riding time just over 4 hrs and 78 miles covered.
