Re: [RC] Vertigo/dizzy/ motion sickness in the dark - jamie

I always seem to get motion sickness at night, but
it's definitely better if I'm well hydrated and have
eaten well throughout the day.
Also, it's best if I am not following anyone but am at
the front of the group and if I am able to keep my
spirits up and just convince myself that it's fun like
a rollercoaster instead of scary.
There's nothing worse than puking off the side of your
horse.

==========================================

I would love to hear what people use to prevent or
help getting
vertigo at night. I have been in the saddle
longer, ridden in the
dark for years, and NEVER got "helium head" like I
did at the end
of our 100 mile ride. I didn't get nausea at all,
just felt "higher
then a kite", and could only ride at a walk. What
could I have done
wrong to cause this? I was not overly tired. More
water, or elytes
maybe? Maybe more food? I wouldn't mind doing a
100 again, but
not if I can't figure out why the vertigo. I am
not a pill taker,
my stomach gets too sensitive. I am very easy on
the Aleve, which
is the only pain meds I can take. I just know that
there was some
very simple thing I must have left out, and need
some help figuring
it out.

Thank you,
Skyla
