Just don't use tap water as it tastes really bad!

Water. Possibly a high 5 zero pink grapefruit tab when very warm

And skinny latte halfway round

There's more than a grain of truth in any choice.

But it is maybe best to take anything said with a pinch of salt.

I use Robinsons apple and blackcurrant juice, though this time of year it can stay in the bottle for a few rides. I always have a cup of tea before I set off

Don't carry fluids at all at the moment. It's only really in summer I feel the need of a drink and I like the High 5 zero tabs as I don't like the taste of plain water very much.

taking any drink with a pinch of salt literally is a good idea though!

Plain water is a bit .... bland, so I usually use either fresh orange juice diluted with water (or apple juice works just as well) or in summer I'll drop in a High 5 tab.

I'm a newbie so please bear with me. I have a big mug of sugary tea before I set off. I fill my bottle just in case (with corporation pop) but haven't needed to use any yet in this weather. I'm expecting that will change though in summer!

may well do the trick is to drink before you feel you are becoming dehydrated, otherwise you can easily end up in real trouble

50/50 flat coke and water...

Flat coke is a wind inducing agent...
Oh I get it a swig and its turbo power...
I normally take just pure water, I must get this corrected...

Cider halfway round, yeah !!!!

i don't like coke and stuff like that flat or fizzy (i don't like all the damn chemicals) and i manage fine with just plain tap water
