    Who else gets race weekend hangover?

    Holy crap am I friggin toast right now.

    Way too much sun, not nearly enough food & water. I was hungry all weekend yet had no appetite. What little food I ate I had to force down.

    Went to bed last night with severe cold sweats, full body muscle tension & a headache that borderlined on a migrane. Hardly slept a wink.
    Shoulda called in sick today but I'm feelin better now, though my head's still in a fog.

    Where's my violin?

    I was useless Sunday, and all I did was a day of spectating.

    I didn't ride a single lap, but being there for 4 days wore me out nonetheless.

    Track hangover. I got em all the time. Too much adrenalin, not enough fluids, serious mental focus, physical output, not enough sleep, some beer. I took me four days to recover sometimes.

    I am not lucky enough to race yet, but as Arnold would say: "You lack discipline."

    Im actually feeling pretty good today. I dont each much until my races are over but I drink about a case of water a weekend. When racing is done I have a big meal to replenish. Wish I had another day up there.

    Oh yeah, don't forget you're sniffing toxic race gas all weekend.

    Sounds like you didn't put enough fluids in your body Pete.
    My legs are usually pretty sore for a couple days, but I feel great today after this last weekend...I rode fri, sat and sun...and wished I was still up there racing.
    I try to eat a good amount on race weekends....you need a source of energy to burn on the track.

    My lunch during the rider's meeting is chicken fingers and fries with a bottle of water, thirsty or not. Fries get vinegar and a good dosing of salt. Good fat and starch content, salt delivery, and it doesn't sit heavy in your stomach.

    Amen brother. We didn't even bother unpacking on Saturday night when we got home. Hit the hot tub, a few cold brews and then done. My wife had to wake me up!

    I had a race weekend hangover and I didn't even twist a throttle. Go figure.
