Well, that's the rumour! A guy a rode with yesterday told me all about it.
Yesterday I did a metric centery.. aka: 63 miles with a group. It was 102F degrees... and we all said it was good training for the Hotter Than Hell!
I did good. My left calf started to act like it was going to cramp up, but I kept drinking water and eating my Clif Shots, and it stayed away!
