Three different energy drink sponsers on the podium in both classes. I'm not sure that has happened often.

While they aren't the healthiest thing, they're not the much worse then a larger triple triple coffee that people drink just as much. An occasional one isn't going to hurt anything, and they sure as he'll don't cause autism. Leave that to the vaccines (sarcasm).

I don't drink them often but when I do its Red Bull. The events they put on, teams they sponsor, and general way they carry themselves is way classier than the others. And athat they fund spinal cord research is the deciding factor for me.

It's an absolute mystery for me how Monster is that big with their kind of marketing. Does really somebody think it's "cool" what they are doing/organizing?
I mean watch the doonies..

What exactly is the mystery? They sell giant canisters of addictive drugs mixed with sweets for two bucks, pitched by women in revealing outfits.

It is not exactly shocking that such strategy has been a winning marketing formula.

And their target age group is 12 to 21. Acting like an immature fool and boobies is exactly what that age group wants.

72.8% of all statistics are made up on the spot, so. Be careful what you read on the internet.

I hated energy drinks and did not ever consume any of them; however, I recently discovered Fit Aid. It's a naturally sourced recovery drink that acts as an energy drink. It's all natural, gluten free, vegan, and paleo friendly. Many of the guys that I ride mountain bike with drink it and claim that it provides an excellent amount of energy if used prior to a ride.

Well that stat was on the news. They may have made it up but I didn't.

I see a lot of money spent on energy drinks, I bet their advertising is close or more than soft drinks now.
