My Story


I'm kind of a wimp. My wife hates to will freely admit that she's married to a delicate man. Sure, I like to punish myself on 10-14 hour mountain bike rides and can be found racing my mountain bike nearly every weekend all summer long. I think I'm tough. I'm not.

I've made myself sick for most of the last 15 years by mountain biking, trail running and doing the occasional triathlon. If I wasn't suffering from cramps during a race or vomiting afterwards I'd return home useless the rest of the day from nausea. Before any race my kids would ask, Dad, are going to puke today?

I figured it was worth being sick to do what I love most, to see how far I can push my body. I had given up trying different sports drinks, bars, gels and supplements. I've tried everything out there. It didn't matter what I ate or drank I still cramped and got sick. The only thing that sort of worked was plain water and bananas. Not very convenient or effective for cross-country racing or doing Leadville, Creampuff or the Kokopelli Trail.

Something had to be done so I set out to create my own sports drink. Obviously, it couldn't make me sick and it had to fuel me for hours and hours of biking without bonking or cramping. After a few disasters and a season of epic riding and racing I have come up with the perfect combination of carbs and electrolytes. I call it Carbo Rocket.

What makes Carbo Rocket different? Its flat out the best tasting sports drink ever. I personally select only the most expensive highest grade ingredients. I then mix everything in small batches to ensure the perfect 2:1 ratio of carbohydrate sources to provide the most sustained energy and the right amount of electrolytes. It's what you've been looking for.
