When you go to any offroad race here in the eastern midwest you will see that 80% of the bikes entered are KTM 2 strokes so you will be well equipped. Pickle juice (DILL) is the magic elixir for fighting muscle fatiuge and cramps, thought it was crap too till I tried it, seems that many endurance athletes use it and has some university studys to back it up.Pickle Juice?
Who woulda thought, better get me some

yes pickle juice is absolutely disgusting, but it works, when i played college tennis, the whole team took a shot of it before we'd play, it helps with cramps extremely well, not so sure about muscle fatigue, because if you're already tired/sore you will still be that way after you drink it, but the best way to avoid getting cramps is #1 drink water, even when you're not thirsty/think you need water, drink. In a 2 hour tennis match i'd drink 2-3 gallons of water and i'd usually have one of those gallons cut half and half with gatorade

Breakfast: Bacon, eggs, toast, hash browns, tomatoes and sasauges.
Lunch: Roast potatoes with rice, veggies and a fat steak. coffee is a must too (sarcasm)
Dinner:Something with alot of pasta in it. And a Pie for desert. A big one.
before I really did me knee, thats how I rolled. Or something along those lines. Good times... I was never short of energy. From a biological perspective, the pickle juice makes sense.
The native new zealanders used to drink alot of pineapple juice after a massive meal of protien to prevent cramps. The reason for this was, well the obviously didn't know this they just did it cos it worked, but the highly accidic pineapple juice allowed their stomachs to process all the protein and carbs faster. I'd wager its something similar with pickle juice. Although as I'm writing this it occurs to me that you guys were referring to muscle cramps... That ones got me beat. But I'll post this anyway
Just a fun fact for everyone

At about mile 30ish the radiator broke and that was the end of that. It was worth a shot though!
That's why I love my air coolers
