TORQ’s new Natural Vanilla Pod energy drink was launched at the Cycle Show this weekend and although it’s not quite available in the internet shop yet (awaiting an image), you can buy it if you phone direct on 0845 128 4312. 

Following the huge success of TORQ gel’s launch at the Cycle Show in 2007 and the more recent arrival in 2009 of TORQ’s Banoffee gel (with guarana, our sports nutritionists have been busy dreaming up a flavour for 2011 – one that will catch the imagination of the nation. 

Here at TORQ we are always pleased to hear of people’s sporting success, especially when fuelled with our performance nutrition products. 

Just a quickie to let you know that our NEW Rhubarb & Custard energy gel and Chocolate Mint recovery drink are now available to purchase online…

We have been reeling in the aftermath of the Earls Court Cycle Show and just haven’t been able to get the shop updated until now.  Currently the shop only displays a single box option of gels and 500g or 1.5Kg options for the recovery drink.  If you would like to purchase a mixed box or larger volumes of product to get a bulk discount, could you please phone 0845 128 4312 and order over the telephone until we’ve revised the online options. 

Sir Steve Redgrave, Britain’s favourite sportsman and five times Olympic Gold medallist is coming out of retirement one last time in order to tackle one of the most formidable challenges possible on a bike. 

TORQ’s products have landed at Renault F1 headquarters and they’re being devoured apparently…

Renault Sport Promoter Simon North commented, “TORQ products, like the energy bars, gels and drinks have gone down very well with the drivers and staff at Renault F1 who are using them to fuel their training and some of their events. 

We thought this might be something you’d be interested in if you live in the busy metropolis.  TORQ have teamed-up Pedal Studio to get behind their venture.  Cycling indoors was for the purist with a high boredom threshold until indoor cycling classes such as ‘Spinning’ started to spring up in the mid 1990’s.  TORQ are huge advocates of these kinds of classes if they’re instructed properly.  It’s not quite as good as riding outside, but it comes a close 2nd…

According to Pedal Studio’s Andrew Clayton “In recent years indoor cycling has become one of the most popular classes at the local gym, promising to help you shed pounds in a fast, effective way.  More often than not, you come out of the gym sweating profusely thinking you have had a ‘hard’ workout, but with no real feedback. 

The team at TORQ would like to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year… 

Our Christmas opening hours are as follows (product orders only). 

Further to the recent changes in VAT announced by the government last week, we are pleased to confirm that the 15% VAT rate has now been applied to our web store. 

At long last, TORQ’s new Online Store is now live and this means that you can now purchase our BRAND NEW Strawberries & Cream recovery drink and Single Measures online without having to phone up…

There are also another couple of sections you might be interested in. 

As with our new Strawberries and Cream recovery drink mix, this product won’t be online for a couple of weeks either, but you can still buy it if you’re happy to do one of the following:

* Phone 0845 128 4312 and order over the phone. 

How frustrating is this? We’ve got a great NEW recovery product, but it’s really difficult to buy?
