Gu Hoppy Trails
Ever just want the taste of beer before the ride is over? Gu has got it covered. The new Hoppy Trails flavor is the latest in their bitter flavor collection, following the Chai flavor released last year.
“Perfecting the Hoppy Trails flavor was part art and part science,” says Magda Boulet, VP of Research, Innovation and Development at GU Energy Labs. “We are always looking for the next flavor to add to our roster, and this new addition perfectly balances a fruity citrus aroma and the delicate bitterness of hops. The combination of these different flavor profiles creates a unique tasting experience for your next run, ride, or adventure.”
The Hoppy Trails flavor is said to have a mild citrus and hoppy profile, and does not contain alcohol or caffeine. Each packet is 100 calories. Pricing starts at $36 for a 24-pack, or go for the six-pack which comes with a Klean Kanteen steel pint glass. For more info visit the Gu page for Hoppy Trails.

Silca Hirobel frame clamp
Don’t clamp down too hard on carbon tubes when your bike is in the repair stand, says Silca. Instead, this frame clamp works to gently squeeze mountain bike frame tubes so the integrity of the frame is still intact. Silca recently acquired Hirobel Cycling Solutions and moved production of Hirobel products to Silca’s home in Indianapolis. Hirobel’s primary product is the frame clamp. The clamp is paint-friendly, adaptable to all frame designs, and costs $185USD. For more information, visit the Silca site.
