Get Energy!!

It rained yesterday here in Nagoya, but the rain has stopped today and the weather looks like it will improve starting tomorrow. (I’m secretly relieved that the forecast is sunny for tomorrow) How is everyone spending the long weekend? I imagine many of you are planning long rides. If so, I highly recommend carrying some nutritional snacks with you!

CLIF “CLIF BAR” ¥238 (excl. tax)

We have all the standard CLIF BAR flavors in stock. At about 250 calories per bar, they are great for keeping you full. Please be sure to bring one along on your ride. They are also great to have as a snack when you're busy.

CLIF “CLIF Shot Gel” ¥238 (excl. tax)
CLIF “CLIF Shot Blocks” ¥371 (excl. tax)

While CLIF is best known for energy bars, their lineup also includes Gels and Blocks (gummies). The easily absorbed Gels provide immediate energy, making them invaluable for races and the like. The packaging is cleverly designed so that the torn-off tab doesn't fall off, which is a very important detail.

Blocks offer the same energy replenishment as the Gels, and since they are gummies, you can consume them easily without getting your hands dirty. Nutritional snacks for long rides tend to be solid, so it’s nice to have something like this to provide a change in texture.

Bonk Breaker ¥360 (excl. tax) → Special Price

Bonk Breakers are neither too hard nor too soft, and are easy to eat without feeling too dry. The packaging is designed to be opened with one hand, making them easy to consume while riding. We are currently selling items approaching their expiration date at a special price. Members of the Circles Racing Club, please be sure to check them out!
