Re: [RC] Ulcers & salt - rides2far@xxxxxxxxI've often wondered if my lowish bp contributes to me getting sick during hot humid rides, etc. I *try* to stay hydrated, but I know I end up in a deficit (simply from how few times I pee). Don't know if a person's bp plays a part in how well they handle temp. >>>extremes or not. Mine runs something like 110 over 60. I handle heat really well...have done the hottest rides witout ever feeling queezy or light headed...but I FREEZE at most people's houses. I like a fireplace where I can sit on the hearth and bake. I thought I was the coldest blooded person I knew till I met Jody. She wears like 4 layers *during* the ride! I usually start peeling them once we're riding hard and I warm up but she wore that much for 2 loops! She must have eaten more salt than I did...or maybe it was the matches. Hey Jody, did your mom tell you not to eat paper cause it was made with catapillar blood? Angie --- Begin Message ---
