Didn't know they had reopened after the fire. Have a good ride and enjoy the Q.Last minute but we are headed a different direction for BBQ tomorrow.

The heat is no biggie, just like cold, all part of riding. Dress accordingly, maybe stop an extra time or 2 to cool off.
I wish that were true for me. The last couple times I went out in it I ended up with nasty headaches those evenings. And before you ask, yes I was hydrated. 3L of water/Gatorade mix concerned each time. Seems I just don't tolerate the heat. Cold, on the other hand, is no problem I'll happily ride when it's 40° out.
Gatorade dehydrates me. I drank a quart between loops at SHNF once and first time of my life was affected by the heat.
It's always worked for me. Got started on it when I worked outside years ago. I used to be a bit more adjusted to the heat then. I spend too much time in the air con now. Maybe I'll try water next
We ride single track for hour and half to 2 hours. I don't even carry water.Gatorade dehydrates me. I drank a quart between loops at SHNF once and first time of my life was affected by the heat.
pedialyte seems to help some folks. I drink Body Armor. I think you need more than water to replenish.
This. Trying to hydrated the day of just won't cut it.You can't hydrate while you are in the heat so the gatorade was not the culprit. The lack of hydration in the days leading up to your ride was. If it's hot and you're sweating profusely, you're losing more than your body can absorb. If you don't hydrate in the days prior to your ride you could run into a heat related problem.
There will be a scattering of Joe Fink's ashes on September 11th by his wife and family. It will take place in the Carbondale/Marble area of Colorado. Lodging in the area is limited and not cheap. However there are a couple of campgrounds in the area such as Bogan Flats Campground and places in the Redstone area. The time and exact places will not be finalized until the 10th when his wife Lori scouts the area.
That's pretty harsh and pretty sure not true. With covid, it's been a strange year. Possible that Joe didn't want a big deal made of his passing.That's all fine and good, but it's not like anyone can really go. Of course, that's probably intentional. We've all been kept in the dark all along. Really disappointing that there's never been a memorial for everyone to get together.
Thanks for posting this Chuck. I`ll never forget the time I spent with You and Joe at the River Inn . I can`t think of a better excuse to go to Colorado. .
