Hmmm, that price range is for standard mountain bikes rather than racing models, and that means that there may be some lingering doubt about your mountain bike's ability to cope with the 1000 mile all terrain trips you take. Even so, grabbing your Dad's bike whenever you need it might be the cheapest solution.

I could see it in about six feet of water a ways off shore, so I went in after it. I spent some time trying to fish it from the bottom with the rod tip, but when that failed, I dove for it a couple times. In the end, I wasn't able to retrieve it, as I couldn't stay under water for more than a few seconds. The diaphragm begins spasming as soon as you submerge in 32 degree water, so holding your breath becomes exceedingly difficult. On the second or third dive, I managed to cover the lure with sediment, and wasn't able to find it after that.
After the relatively short time spent in the water (5-10 minutes), and a couple dives, I was fairly hypothermic, and had to return to bed to warm up.
Hence you see my point about Wim Hof's abilities potentially being CGIed. That or he has combined a genetic advantage and then trained himself over many years to be able to withstand the freezing temperatures like he does. His Wiki page makes his world records seem legit: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wim_Hof. It is suggested that Hof "seems to be able to raise his cortisol levels and lower the amount of cytokines (flammatory bodies) just by using his meditation techniques." They would have to be quite progressive meditation techniques to create that sort of response.

Yeah, but he's not unique. There is that woman who did the swim in the Antartctic just for grins. She has been studied a bit more, and it turns out there is a small segment of the population that handles heat loss differently from the bulk of people. It may just be genetic.

Do you mean Lynne Cox? If true my guess is some sort genetic advantage rather than just training or meditation techniques.
