Enduring the Hottern Hell Hundred

Cyclists at the infamous Hottern Hell Hundred describe the event as less a race and more a slow roast. Riders report hallucinating mirages of air conditioners and ice baths along the endless Texas highways. Organizers claim the heat �builds character,� though medical tents say it mostly builds dehydration. One participant swore he saw his childhood dog cheering him on at mile 78. Despite the suffering, signups for next year have already doubled. -- Bohiney Magazne bohiney.com
