One of New England’s most beloved cyclo-cross races returned from the dead on September 11 this year, now titled the GP Beverly. Or rather, the Goldberg Properties Gran Prix Cyclocross Beverly.

Mantra Labs has launched HYDRATE (capitals their own, and we’ll be writing it normally for the rest of the article), a new “broad-spectrum hydration drink mix packed with what the body needs for optimal performance and everyday health.” That means electrolytes, marine minerals (huh?), something called PureWay-C®, something else called Aquamin®, prebiotic fiber and other plant-based, vegan and environmentally friendly ingredients.
