 What do they consider drugs? I don't use drugs per say but what about
 bigeoil lintament? What is acceptable and what is not? And what about
 multi day rides? Are we allowed to use lintaments at night?  >>

Hi, JT--

Just about everything is considered to be a drug.  Be careful with
liniments--many of them have drugs in them that can be absorbed through the
skin, such as salicylates, etc.  A safe leg brace would be isopropyl alcohol
under a wrap, just to soothe and cool.
