Hello All !
I completed my first century ride at the Hotter N Hell 100 last
month.  It was also my first event on my new Diamondback Expert.
The hills were tough.  (I've only got a few overpasses in my 
area).  I really enjoyed the entire weekend and plan on 
participating next year.  The only ill after effect of the  
ride was extreme numbness in both of my hands.  I constantly
changed hand positions during the ride and flexed my fingers
to attempt to ward it off without success.  In fact, I haven't
completely recovered as of yet.  My fingers still tingle and
I haven't regained full control over my fingers.  Should I be
panicking?  I was advised of special gel filled gloves that 
should solve the problem.  Anyone else out there with a 
simular problem?
