SUMMERTIME SAFETY
Compiled For The SOUTHERN DUAL SPORTING NEWSLETTER
And The Withlacoochee Dual Sport Riders  By Robert "Swampy" Frey

Okay, so it's gettin' a little warm outside. Here are a few tips that I u=
se
to help get me through a hot Florida summer day's ride, and it will help =
you
have a good time riding in the warm summer weather!

Hydrate! Drink, drink drink. Begin hydrating your by increasing fluids a
week before you plan your strenuous outdoor activity. Stay away from
caffienated drinks. Water and sports drinks are the way to go.

Wear Light Colored Clothing! Now's the time to stay away from the dark
colors. the lighter the better. Also, keeping an extra jersey or shirt in
your fanny pack or tail pack will give you a good, cool feeling just
changing! I even have "summertime" riding jersey's where I cut the sleeve=
s
to =BE length, and put a slit down each side of the jersey to aid in
ventilation.

Hydrate! Drink plenty of fluids for a week before, and the morning of the
activity. Drink plenty of fluids during the activity, drink plenty of flu=
ids
after the activity. Most of all drink even when you're not thirsty.

Please, please read and understand the following information from the
American Red Cross. Not only for your benefit, but possibly for someone
you're riding with. Let's start with some definitions:

Heat Cramps are muscular pains and spasms due to heavy exertion. They
ususlly involve the abdominal muscles or legs. It is generally thought th=
at
the loss of water from heavy sweating causes cramps.

Heat Exhaustion typically occurs when people excercise heavily or work in
warm,  humid places where body fluids are lost through heavy sweating. Bl=
ood
flow to the skin increases, causing blood flow to decrease to the vital
organs. This results in a form of mild shock. If not treated, the victim'=
s
condition will worsen. Body temperature will keep rising and the victim m=
ay
suffer heat stroke.

Heat Stroke is life threatening. The victim's temperature control system
stops working. The body temperature can rise so high that brain damage an=
d
death may result if the body is not cooled quickly.

SIGNS OF HEAT EMERGENCIES!

Heat Exhaustion: Cool , moist, pale, or flushed skin; heavy sweating,
headache; nausea and vomiting; dizziness and exhaustion. Body temperature
will be near normal.

Heat Stroke:  Hot, red skin; changes in conscousness, rapid, weak pulse,
rapid weak breathing. Body temperature can be  as high as 105F If the per=
son
was sweating from heavy work or excercise, skin may be wet, otherwise it
will feel dry.

WHAT YOU CAN DO!
Heat Cramps: Get the person to a cooler place and have him rest in a
comfortable position. Lightly stretch the affected muscle and replenish
fluids. Give a half glass of cool water every 15 minutes. DO NOT  give
liquids with alcohol or caffiene, as they may make conditions worse.
Heat Exhaustion:  Get the person out of the heat and into a cooler place.
Remove or loosen tight clothing and apply cool wet cloths. If the person =
is
conscious, give cool water to drink. half a glass evry 15 minutes. NO
ALCOHOL OR CAFFIENE.

Heat Stroke: Is Life Threatening! Help is needed fast. Move person to a
cooler place, quickly cool the body. Immerse person in cool bath or fan
them. Watch for signals of breathing problems. Keep the person lying down
and continue to cool the person any way you can. If victim refuses water,=
 is
vomiting, or there are cahnges in consciousness, do not give anything to
drink.

PREVENTATIVE MEASURES:
Wear light colored clothing, drink plenty of liquids, drink often, even i=
f
you don't feel thirsty. Drink, drink, drink.

Any suggestions?

    I only know of one guy that used any software for making roll charts.
And they were excellent. The directional arrows he came up with were great.
R.L. Lemke used some road book software to do his dualsport ride in Arkansas
last year.  He's doing another this Fall---"The Fall Color Tour". He has
even pondered using GPS track logs--gut not that many people had GPS's or
the proper ones.

    You can send him an e-mail here:    [e-mail]

I am no expert on the subject as I have just completed my first DS ride,
however the roll chart was dead on for 250 miles.

Damon Powell from http://www.dualdogs.com put on the event. Perhaps he can
be of assistance.

Doug,

You can set Microsoft word (or just about any other word processing program)
up for 3" wide strips with no margins on the top and bottom.  Use a inkjet
printer that supports continuous feed banner paper.  Then cut the roll
charts down to 3-3.5" wide strips on a paper cutter.

Subject: (dr) More creating event roll charts

What we use is Microsoft Word and set the page columns to 4 and start
entering the information. You can add whatever little icons you wish with it
too, like arrows, little gas pumps, etc. Doesn't take long at all.

As for accuracy to the turn-to-turns, it depends on what bike is doing the
layout. It's normal top have a descrepancy of about 1/10 of a mile due to
all the differences in manufacturers and wear and tear to your bikes
odometer/speedo unit. While some folks will hit the turns dead on, others
will be close......That's why someone needs to do it, then have two
pre-riders ride the course with the route sheet and mark descrepancies and
double check that the route sheet is accurate and free from turn errors. And
don't forget to somehow mark the turn, we use two ribbons of different
colors at turns and a single color ribbon as a verifier after the turn and
on the trail. In the deep woods sections we arrow.

Subject: (dr) surgy around 4000rpm

My 92 DR350S has a hesitation/surge problem when opening the throttle
around 4000 rpm.  Stock pipe, airbox top cut out by previous owner,
drain and spark arrestor screws in pipe missing (also previous owner).
Advice?

Also, does anyone have experience with the Cobra pipe being too loud
for these organized dual sport rides?  My cousin has one and it doesn't
seem too bad...
