Testimonial: My Bike sponosr (rocket bikes) got me on to the product. I used it for a few weeks on all hard training sessions and loved the feeling. I now won’t do a hard session without it. I find that it gives an awesome lift but you don’t have the sugar lows that are found with most sugar drinks (like coke) Go Fast enables me too keep racing! Bring on Ironman NZ 08. Cheers Go Fast
