| I use the Gu packs on my rides. They provide the needed glucose and will bring your BS up also. If you are going to be going for hours you will need more than just dextrose tablets. I carry 2 packs on my bike at all times and on long rides take another two plus a water bottle full of carb drink. I can consume an extra 100Gs of carbs without bolusing or elevating my BS. You will be burning calories so be prepaired.
