Here's hoping for a speedy recovery! What a way to learn!
To the original poster - I'm wondering if your glasses of wine didn't contribute to your lousy feeling the next day? Doesn't alcohol dehydrate you?
I always try to drink extra the day before big rides. Here in AZ, it's 95 degrees by 8AM and climbing rapidly.

It's supposed to be 97 for my 200k Saturday. I hate to do it, now that I've had the monkey off my back for so long, but I'm going to ride with my Camelback. Nothing is worse than running out of water.

And I will try to learn from your mistakes and carry lots and lots of water on my charity ride on sunday. I'm not usually very good at staying hydrated. I forget until it's too late. But it is supposed to be 30C (BF burst out laughing when we saw the weather forecast last night) and I tend to boil at anything above 18C so I will make sure to carry my camelback and a couple of extra bottles and try to remind myself to actually drink some of it. And I will consider this a short test run to see if I can actually survive the aids ride in the CA heat next year.
