Just a couple quick shouts on new 2009 MTB products we’ve seen (and liked) at Interbike:

Camelbak elixir – We sampled a couple new flavors at the outdoor demo (Berry and Lemon Lime) and the stuff tastes really good. It’s not very sweet at all, more like ‘flavored water’ and I’m guessing it’s just enough to cover up the plastic/vinyl taste from your Camelbak on hot days. Bonus: electrolytes included 😉
