| When you ride, make sure it isn't only in nice conditions. | Twilight Error®
Jan 2, 2002 8:54 AM | | A big part of a 24 hour solo is mental toughness; if you can keep going at 2am in a cold drizzle when all you want to do is find a warm and dry place to die, you can do well in the race.
Getting to that point is difficult.
I did it through winter climbing in nasty conditions - I know that if I can last 13 hours exposed on a ridge in sub freezing temps and high winds, I can make it through the night hours of the race.
Damn shame I didn't do anything to toughen my back, because thats what did me in. |
| Ride More, injured less, do 100 mile race solo. | Red Ascent
Jan 1, 2002 10:16 AM | | This year, I want to ride more places, spend less time on the sidelines injured, and do a 100 mile XC race solo - probably the Shenandoah 100, which I missed last year do to (what else?) injury. Also, I
i will
make the Mt Snow gathering in 2002, having been tripped up by marital implosion in '00, and injury in '01.
Happy New Year to all!

| Explore more! | M-U-M
Jan 1, 2002 11:49 AM | | Stop living in "limited space". Ride new areas - local and out of state. Keep a kind and patient perspective about others.
Example: Don't mix the meat & veggie pots of chili I get to supervise while 20 other people are playing in the woods cause I've been sick all week. Happy New Year! 8) |
| 100 miler on singlespeed | Drevil
Jan 1, 2002 3:29 PM | | I want to get in good enough shape to do a 100 mile race on a singlespeed. I don't know if I have the mettle to try it on a rigid like mondo, but we'll see as it approaches. Either the Shenandoah Mt 100 or the Leadville. |
| You sick Fock! | Red Ascent
Jan 1, 2002 8:09 PM | | I'd rather do it on a rigid bike, than on a singlespeed...talk about severe masochism. LOL...good luck if you do it, let me know if you do SM100..I'm
i definitely
doing it this year, barring further self-inflicted injury...

| hmmm....interesting | kendog
Jan 2, 2002 8:01 AM | | I'm not sure if I'll ever be fit enough to do it on a single speed, but it would be fun on a geared bike. Do you have a link for more information on either one? |
| Link here... | Red Ascent

| Survive cardiac surgery | Seb
Jan 1, 2002 4:12 PM | | I think that's a pretty good one. There's a slim chance I WON'T need the surgery, but chances are I will. Hopefully it will actually make me a better rider, since I won't have to worry as much about what could happen if I max my HR for any length of time. |
| When's this event gonna take place? | M-U-M
Jan 1, 2002 4:44 PM | | If'n you're willing to devulge..... some of us have rather nice surgery support systems (off board). 8) |
| And I thought surviving my divorce was an accomplishment! | Red Ascent
Jan 1, 2002 8:19 PM | | In all seriousness, best wishes to you. My grandma had two surgeries for mitral valve replacement (she outlived the first), and my fiancee may need the same some day - she suffered from rheumatic fever as a child.
