I was on the 12hr this weekend and did 198 miles. I must have stopped at least 16 times, and I'm sure many riders on the course will remember me for diving in or out of field entrances. I probably would have made 200 miles if i hadn't had those stops from which it takes a while to get rhythm back.
I've had this before. It's linked with a sudden urge, that just comes on and I HAVE to stop. I was fine for the first half of the 24hr, but had this issue in the second half. It also happened on a DIY 300 in March, when my record was 3 stops in 18km. I also had the issue for 2 days off the bike, when being 10 minutes walk from home almost ended in disaster.
It may be an infection thing, but I don't get any pain. I'm 26, so unlikely to be prostate issues, that's for old men AFAIK.
Any ideas of what the issue could be and any preventative measures?
