Bonking, Sugar and Hoopnetting...

WTF.. After a hundred miles on my bike all night I come home this?

Yeah the video is from my PFD cam,and I push myself hard as I can, but I do it not for anyone else or some stupid web trip, I do it because I love it and because I still can do it.

Like marathons or triathlons or or fukathons I hang and push the extremes because I want the most I can get out of life.

If people don't get that...well screw them and the sterile horse they rode in on.

Hey Jim. I also do the long hoop nights on the yak. Many trips are 6 to 8 hour affairs after the three mile paddle to the spot and back and all the pulls in between.

I usually load up on food before I hit the water. I bring a bottle of gatorade and a couple bottles of water with me. A couple of suckers seems to help when the energy reserves get low too.

Mostly the cigars get me through the rough spots though

Yeah you do love it, but like I said Jim, your an animal!

Actually, someone prior to my post mentioned your vid being shaky, and even volunteered to hold your cammy next time. As for me, your vid is an excellent representation in the effort you put into the things you love. But only 100 miles on the bike , your slowing down .

But Jim, keep in mind, I apologize for nothing.
