Drying time is one of those lessons you have to learn the hard way before it sticks.

The Planet Fitness on 3rd is actually where I had the same thing happen with the leg press. 3 months ago I was pushing so hard on the handles that my shoulders cramped up after 10 reps. I loosened my grip to barely holding them and my quads actually did the work for the first time. The funny thing is I still catch myself doing it with the cable machines now. I'll be doing tricep pushdowns and suddenly my fingers are white. So yeah, you're not alone in this.

Bet you could've torqued that bolt by feel and been fine, torque wrenches are overkill half the time anyway. Are you sure you didn't just cross-thread it?

Feel you @ward.fiona, that heat is no joke.

Oh man, the sleeping bag thing rings a bell. I read a blog post once where some guy said he just put a fleece blanket in his pack for a summer trip and ended up bailing at 2am because he couldn't stop shivering. That's basically me except I brought a bag rated for 50 degrees and the temp dropped to 38. I had on two pairs of socks, my rain jacket, and was still curled up like a shrimp trying to trap heat. The forecast said clear skies, but I never even thought about the overnight low. Now I check the 10-day forecast like it's my job and have a dedicated spreadsheet for my gear's temperature ratings.
