First metric

[RoadRaven]

Congrats, congrats, congrats JDI!!!

Such an awesome feeling to complete a milestone like that and complete it well. The most I have done is a metric century and I felt pretty chuffed with that

As to the numbness - there is a bit of discussion here on palsy of the hand, and numbness in general. Here are two of the threads below...

I get numbness ocassionally - usually in the outside of my right hand, and I tend to "blame" not moving much - in a race situation I can tend to grip the bars in one way and not move or barely move for 35-60 minutes... My advice is to keep making sure you shift position occasionally so the weight is changed or removed from hand/s every now and then. That seems to work for me. Good luck
