Pics from todays race

Only got 2 of me this race. I started blacking out during the 3rd lap. I had a serious case of heat exhaustion going on.

looks like fun... We went riding at a track yesterday... it was 94 degrees and it had rained that moring so it was really humid... you couldnt stay out for more than 15-20 laps... and we will be back at it today...high of 96...

1 lap for us was 13 miles. It was pretty interesting, I don't remember doing a good 1.5 mile section of the track on lap 3. When I made it back to the pits and got off my quad, everything went black except the twinkles I was seeing. Almost collapsed, my mom had to hold me up and help get my gear off. I was in extremely bad shape. I thought at one point during the last lap I was going to puke in my helmet.

I'm very disappointed with myself but what are you gonna do. I think it would have had a much worse ending had I chose to continue.

Damn, that sounds miserable, like riding with a hangover.

[Stoopidbot1]

At that point I would have paid good money for a hangover rather than what I had.

Those are great pics Bot! I hope you drank lots of fluids!

[Stoopidbot1]

I couldn't get fluids in me quick enough. I have never had anything like that happen to me before, scared the hell out of me. Blacking out at 60+ mph is not my idea of a good time.

Glad you're ok 'bot.....you're getting older like the rest of us <evil smirk>

Look at talking to a sports nutrionist....

[Sc0tt]

Yep glad you ok Bot. The pix look good. Do you ride with one of those hydration backpacks?

[DrtyGrlKristin]

Yea he had his camel pak on, but, i guess while racing the hose got messed up somehow and he couldnt drink from it cuz it was flapping behind him and of course he didnt wanna stop to fix it.

DAMN, I'm getting old...

That's a racers mentality for you, I was kicking as* and stopping to fix my hydration hose wasn't an option... maybe i should have.
