Re: [RC] Calves and Lessons - paulHi Jody, Sitting down on the toilet is easy. Just bend your knees a little and let gravity do its work. Figuring a way to get a forklift into the bathroom to help me back up is the hard part. By the way, at Tevis on Sunday morning I figured out how to tell who finshed just by looking at them. The ones walking fine but with a sad expression got pulled early. The ones walking funny with a sad expression got pulled late. The ones who could barely walk, but had a big smile on their tired faces were those who finished. When they were doing the awards, most people had a tough timje with the steps going up to the stage. I was determined to not look that bad, so bounced up the steps and jogged over to the presenter. Ron Chapman and my crew were impressed with this, as they had seen how sore I was. I just sang the line from the Toby Keith song, " I ain't as good as I once was.. But I am as good once as I ever was" PS.. Debbie Parsons was amazing.!!! She will do SE Region proud when she completes Tevis. When I contacted her, I mentioned that I had references from her region. I mentioned you as one. She said she would crew for me anyways:) Paul N.

OK, personal opinion, I think that's the muscle we use to make ourselves lower down *gently* when we post, which is why I am incapable of lowering myself down a stair, or a curb or anything else for a few days after a hard ride. If you'll go backwards down the stairs and walk backwards down hills it won't hurt, but people look at you funny. I had to explain to my neighbor why I was backing down the hill with a wheelbarrow with a bale of hay in it. Congratulations!!!
