I always suck wind in long races, I've never noticed if Ibuprofen caused dehydration though. I tend to overhydrate, maybe that's the secret.

This is a forum for smack talk, not chemistry. Bottom line is, even if Echo drinks 10 gallons of water and eats a whole bottle of Advil, he's still at the mercy of the Ass Balancers.

ps - I had a little "incident" with ibuprofen in a distance race a few years ago. 20 or so in a 11 hour period ended up being not good for me. :eek: :dead:
holy cow i'm supprised you didnt die. you should only have 1600mg's per 24 hour period.

Looks like i am helping the team without smack. Thats ok, i'm not much of a boaster anyway.
I am very much looking forward to this event and the oppertunity to sit at my grill for 3 days. My old one wasnt big enough and was prone to rust, so i went and orderd this beauty. mmmmm,, stainless steel.
Ya think a 28lb turkey will be enough? If there are leftovers Sunday i can make hash.

bill

p.s. I do own a bike and know how to ride it, but not well enough to smack talk. If i change the game to food i have a better chance of winning.

You really want an HID system. My lap times were 5 minutes faster with my HID system than they were with my halogen light, had more fun too.

Ten years ago in 1972 a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn't commit. These men & women promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Rochester underground. Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of fortune & mountain bikers. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire the Ass Balancers!!

Yeah but because of solar wind, it still gets dark for a few hours.

Last one to respond better start practicing sprinting up to your bike then taking off for a ride with your HR at 300.

Us 24 hour race virgins need to plan and organize or we'll show up with no food, no tents, and no gear. :p

We'd probably have plenty of beer though, and I guess that's all we really need.

Roger that. I was planning on showing up with my bike and cooler of beer, drinking its contents until empty, then sleeping under the cooler.
