  1. The most interesting sleeping pattern I've come across is polyphasic sleep. You don't do all of your sleeping in one lump of time, but rather take naps throughout the day. Supposedly you will need less sleep overall, and have a lot more free time. If you're interested, check out a few posts by Steve Pavlina and his experiment with this method http://www.stevepavlina.com/blog/2005/10/polyphasic-sleep/.

     

    That was interesting to read about, it would be quite a challenge. I would be concerned about the impact such a sleep pattern would have on the heart. I read an article a few days ago that sleeping gives the heart a much needed break. A study among healthy people (assumed monophasic) adding a 30+ minute nap midday reduced the risk of cardiac death by 37% (Psychology Today). I wonder if polyphasic would be enough rest for the heart?

     

    I wish I was one of those people that could take a nap midday. I feel like garbage after waking up from them.

  2. You should come Dave...we'll have a blast. Even if that means we need to get up at 5:30 to ride in order to be back to hang out with all the sleepy people.

     

    As for racing I'd like to enter the keirin too but I don't think they'd let non cat 2s in that event.

     

    I'd love to carpool, but I am NOT driving to the East Coast to pick you up. You'd have to cover a LOT more than just tolls.

  3. We're actually north of Houston in the Spring/Woodlands area near Rayford/Sawdust

     

    How far is that from the 610 loop? I live in SW Houston and I think I've been to Spring but not sure about those other places. Jeez, I've been here for like a year and I still don't know where the heck anything is...

     

    we normally eat vegan food at the meet ups, that's what happens there.

     

    Then count me in

     

    Get on 45 North and keep going just north of Houston.

  4. Just out of curiosity, what goes on at one of those meet-ups? And whereabouts in Houston will it most likely take place? Houston's pretty big so I was just wondering...
