They need to get some 24 hours mtb races or ironman triathletes to support these anti-cramping sports drinks or something. I think they have a greater need to replenish whatever it is you need to replenish in their sport than a football player would.

Who is going to put all of this to a test? I usually start cramping at about hour 4 when doing long events. I'm curious!

Could've used it on the Traverse. I'll bring some mustard packets to the next event.

I'll test it this weekend. I'm heading up to Big Bear and plan on getting some biking in. I'll fill a Hammer Gel flask up with pickle juice. Oh, I can't wait to see what warm/hot pickle juice tastes like when I'm down and out on the side of the trail balled up in the fetal position.

If it works like they say...it'll be heading up to D-ville with me too.

I knew I would get asked a technical question like that.
I'm heading up with some friends who are planning on wakeboarding. I really have no idea where exactly I am staying. I'm JRA.....

Great another item to add to the camelback...

Man, if this works, I will be one happy biker.

Last couple of doubles though I haven't cramped at all. Might be I'm in better shape, but I don't think so.

Thumbs up Wow!

We used to make pickle juice snow cones when I was a kid. Man I LOVE the stuff. I never knew it could prevent or get rid of cramps. I don't cramp that often, but this just gives me another reason to drink it.

Yeah but once you are laying on the ground screaming from the cramping, cringing is a significant improvement.

I can see (or smell) it now, next years Traverse will smell like the inside of a deli. Everyone will have a big ol' dill pickle in their water bottle cages.

The 2008 Warrior's Society Traverse sponsored by French's Mustard - or would it be called Condiment 500?

I drink a 6 Pack of Bud and eat extra spicy hotwings before I ride and never cramp.

Yeah, I used to do this too, but tired of changing shorts mid-ride.
