More fun story was 2012 century ride over Highwood Pass in Alberta. Being about 220lbs at the time I likely the heaviest guy climbing it, and had no energy left on the last very steep climb of the pass ... I was so tired I was actually zig-zagging back/forth on the road to reduce the gradient. Suddenly I see a large grizzly bear watching me from about 60' away. - Gulp - Surprisingly, I found more energy. Waaay more.

I've never been so ready to turn/sprint downhill in my life, but I did make it up that pass that day.

I rode the Highwood Pass fondo this summer and had to carefully watch a bear by the roadside... nothing like coming down one of the few downhills on the ascent portion and having to ride the brakes grrrrrr

I just realized you're the same guy who caught his leg on fire while making a peanut butter and jelly sandwich! Poor guy, you can't seem to catch a break.

That story is under there title "Danger! In the kitchen" in the recipe section.
