Sleep

[Rich Hill]

In the past 48 hours ive had 0 hours sleep and ive spent at least 20hrs riding...Im fully knackered

I was just wondering what the longest time anyone has done with out any sleep at all? and what did you do to entertain your self?

[Adam-Griffin]

I can't even go 1 day without it, i sleep bout 12hr's a day, mopre on the weekend, i really dont know how you can manage that, i stayed awake all night once and slept for almost three days afterward's, it actually makes me ill

[ZeroMatt]

last year was up for 3 days doing coursework pretty much solidly other than the odd meal, don't know how i managed to keep awake. It may well have been the thought of spending 2 years doing a levels and not getting any grades keeping me up.

Edit: The most someone has done is 18 days, 21 hours, 40 minutes apparently which is totally nuts

43 hours roughly, was back in 2005.

Went out riding for a whole day with my mate, after that we set off into the mountains to ride natural (big 4 day ride), traveled at night. Once we got there we rode till the evening, got something to eat and went to a few parties. Got into bed around 5am

What kept us going was a 1L mixture of redbull, guarana and VERY strong tea (5 teabags or so). We didn't even finish the drink

Most ive done is 4 days with lawnmower man at hinchcliffes house. My god, that was bad.

Took about 3 months to recover, you get that tired that you cant actually get to sleep..

Managed friday morning to Sunday bout 11 Am once, never tried anymore. i like my sleep

[Fish-Finger-er]

managed 7am on friday, day at work, then 2 days on the piss without sleep before, finally crashing sunday evening in front of top gear.

Jesus Christ, 3 days of sleep, that would have sucked if you had a nightmare

Thats just sick

I usually sleep around 5 hours during schoolweeks, and about 10 in the weekends

Kinda have a sleeping problem, I go to bed at 12 o clock, but when I look at the time just before I fall asleep it's always around 3:30 or higher.

Just can't get stuff on my mind whe I lay in bed and don't have distraction from nasty thoughts:(

In the weekend I just sleep till 3 o clock since I have no job or anything.

Edit: most I've done without sleep is about 35 hours I guess, never really thought about the time I spend awake

Im never doing it again, i like my sleep ive decided I did try and have one of those 10min powernaps last night but it didnt really work

On Top Gear last week, Ronnie Wood (of Rolling Stones fame) said that he and Jagger once stayed up for 7 days. I suspect that he was using some sort of performance-enhancing party sweets though.

[Adam-Griffin]

Think i've got insomnia now though so im reaeeeely struggling as of lately, go to bed bout 10 get to sleep round 3 wake up round 6, its nbot good atall, i cant sleep at night but when i get in from work'school i sleep for hours and make it up

[James]

[Bondy]

Yeh i know how you feel, im going to bed at 2:30am most nights, getting up at 6:45, come home from college and sleep for a couple of hours, then you feel like crap, i could sleep all day everyday if i had the chance!

[Max Quinn]

Most i've done with actually no sleep is friday from about 11am to sunday at about 2pm. One all night party on friday night then i woulda either rode or just kotched with the lads in the day then another party on sat night but i had a free house so went back there with people and jus sat up all night. Knackering haha.

Mind you reading festival was thursday to monday with about 10mins-3hours sleep each night haha.

[Ash-Kennard]

sleeping isn't necessary at all, dw about missing a couple of hours, i sleep about 5-7 hours a night usually, unless ive particularly worn myself out

[Mat Tea Why]

I have trouble sleeping, it usually takes me an hour or so to fall asleep once I've gone to bed, and then its a really light sleep...

I'm getting tired just reading this thread

[Danny Kearns]

I have a sleeping dis-order. Takes me about 2-3 hours get sleep.

I guess it's all about routine though.

Any of the old members remember when Joel tried to stay awake for a whole week whilst on a giant binge?

That was a great thread.

[Tomm]

I miss Joel

[Gavyn.]

i've done 8 days before but then i'm a fair bit of an insomniac so that kind of helped in the end I drank myself to sleep which worked pretty well.

slept for about 3 days afterwards but it's not worth doing really I just felt like shit was sick a few times and my spots got a fair bit worse.

[Shaun H]

I've done 3 days before, when I was about 15 or so I guess. Doesn't affect you so much when you're younger, but if I miss alot of sleep it takes a while for me to recover haha I usually get about 6-7 hours sleep a night, should have 8 apparently and to be honest I do feel much better after having 8. But I have better things to do!

My dad went without for 2 weeks straight and went bipolar, got sectioned and spent 7 months in hospital.

Whats wrong with me at the moment? I can so easily sleep for like 12-14 hours a night, and even once I've sort of woken up it takes a real mission for me to get up. I can go back to sleep if I want for another 2 hours no problem. Maybe I have aids.
