Which I’ve never understood the point of decanting gels, especially people who diluted them.
You pay a premium to have it in gel form for convenience, and then turn that into an expensive version of sugar and water (or even just premixed sport products).

I think it was more carb counting tbh, and zipvit were particularly gloopy so did need a little bit of water 
This was about 15 years ago as well and aero drink bottles or frame embedded nutrition was a long way off it was the bottle between tri bars with Velcro
Drinks like Maurten etc changed things and nutrition is fairly personal. I always liked powerbar stuff but a lot of people hated it
