### ⭐ horrible flavours
*by S***N on 30 July 2022*

i use gels a fair amount as i race triathlons regularly. i didnt like any of the flavours. nice vegan idea but hideous tasting imo. when you kick off with a swim at 6 or 7am the last thing i will be using are these gels. i really didnt enjoy them on the ride much either...back to the high5's for me
