    230.6

    I'm probably the only person in the room who gains weight after long rides. I was 229.2 yesterday morning. One 12-mile bike ride later...230.6. Go figure.

    No true at all! I gain weight after long rides/endurance events. I usually do best on the scale the morning after a rest day. I don't know why that is.

    I also gain weight after long rides - I think my body holds on to the water for a while. It takes three days for my weight to come down after a long ride.

    me too! I gained 6 pounds after one century last summer. I sweat a LOT and hardly ate anything of substance for 6 hours so I'm not sure how THAT happened.

    Hanging in at 149 for me. I had a bad/tough cold all week which prevented me from doing much of anything. Next I hope to report 148 or even 146
