Isn't it funny that their chosen team name is a derivative of our name? Where's the creativity?

oneword - 2006-05-24 1:26 PM Ooohhh... this could be fun. I might be in for the guy's team if there's enough interest... because I should be riding about 400-500 miles next month Muahahahahahahaha...

Go on your own thread mister. The God's of Gears will be happy to have you!

And these awesome legs that cranked out over 10,000K of mileage last year Cool

10 million miles, huh? Somehow, I don't believe that.

Creativity is over-rated.  Besides, the girls started this challenge, and they're just paying homage at the temple of the Gear Goddesses!

This sounds interesting - what are the rules? Is this a mileage only thing or is time going to be accepted (my training plan uses time instead of mileage)?

Oh, Janelle, you will make an excellent teammate! I recall you cancelled a date so that you could ride your bike!

Ladies, Huengsolo proposed the following:

As this is a good natured guys vs. girls competition ... then think we ought to one-up the effort by adding that each bike ride should be accompanied by at least a 10 minute run (thereby creating a mini-brick).  That way this competition will not only be about Time In The Saddle but also Bike And Lateral Lopings. 

 What do you think? Personally, I'm nursing a hamstring nuisance/ idon'twanttocallitaninjury and not sure I want to commit to this.

I didn't really like the BALLS either. Asked about how to make it more reasonable for newbies and those nursing injuries. A brick off every bike ride is unreasonable and I like my BALLS reasonable.

Well Goddesses, what do we think? They are proposing a 10 min brick run after every ride, with an exception for the injury prone and things like commute rides.

I'm definitely in the injury prone category and adding a 10 minute run to each ride would really be imprudent for me, so I'll do maybe one 10 min brick run a week... But you all tell me what you think.

IMHO, the challenge is gears.  Not multi-sport.  I'm inclined to stick with the original intent.  Nothing's stopping anyone from tossing on a run to make it a brick.  Just give you more log fodder.

I don't even know what is refered to as a BALL. 

I am not running these days, and want to sign on for a bike challenge.

Umm, this is a multisport website after all. I'm going to be running whether it's part of the challenge or not just as I will be swimming. I'm willing to tack the 10 minutes on or not but since Oneword's being obnoxious about riding so far so I'm going to call him out.


Hey Oneword- I match you 600 bike miles for the month of June and raise you 100 miles of running. Based on your logs though I'll do the 100+ miles running and you only have to do 70 to keep within the 10% increase injury limit. Oh, and I swim too but will be doing more OW training swims and that's harder to track so we can leave that out.

Nice, way to call the mosquito in our collective ear oneword out.

I don't think 10 min brick requirement is a good idea... No plan suggests you should brick every ride. I think we should make this a bike challenge, running challenge can be a whole separate thread.
