Default cramps

I get stomach cramps all the time. Probably from drinking too much liquid
at one time because I get so thirsty on hot days. Drink liquids at 5 minute
intervals instead of a huge amount at 15 minute intervals.

I've recently started getting cramps toward the end of my 9 mile
commute home, on hot days (at least 90*) when I'm really working hard.
I've been doing this commute for 8 years and have never had cramps
before, even when the weather's hotter and I've been working at least
as hard.

These are abdominal cramps, not muscle (leg) cramps - on the front
right right side of my body, or on the right side of my body, at about
belly-button level, about 25 minutes into the ride.

What do cramps indicate - too little water? too little salt? too
little potassium? too little titanium on my bike?

TIA,
Michael
