you aren't thinking of doing the tour de france are you?
the big thing is- does it come and go? i don't think that kind of physical mania gets people in trouble, anyway. the biggie is either money mania, which gets a LOT of people in trouble, or the hypersexuality, which can cause a lot of grief as well.
paranoia is another part of it that can be real disruptive.

this is where a lot of bp's get in trouble, the mania can be so good. as long as it's just bike rides and long days in the garden, enjoy it.
