This on is too good to bury in the other "dehydration" thread. Damion, please post a recounting of your pre-race hydration idea that you used before the Mount Snow NORBA National (way back in 1994 or something)? Quite the opposite of pre-loading hydrating, but absolutely intentional none the less. His intention was to eliminate his peeing discomfort during racing, but the outcome was not quite what he expected. There is a valuable lesson within.
It is a really impressive and darling story that I hope he himself will share. Otherwise, I'll have to...
