Patrick & I shared a little parrallel ride time after the SFR 200K ride last January. He described a very difficult PBP (his second or third attempt), falling asleep while riding, losing feeling in his arms & hands. I don't recall exactly if he finally could no longer raise his arms or couldn't lean on them. But, it was a physical limit which caught him up. - Jim -- Jim Edgar [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cyclofiend Bicycle Photo Galleries - http://www.cyclofiend.com Current Classics - Cross Bikes Singlespeed - Working Bikes Your Photos are needed! - Send them here - http://www.cyclofiend.com/guidelines "I threw one leg over my battle-scarred all-terrain stump-jumper and rode several miles to work.
