There is no way I can match my May totals.  I'm looking at a calendar and looking at all the days I'm on vacation, and possible jury duty, and I'm not even accounting for the R-word (rain) I'll be lucky if I do 400 miles.  I will be a cheerleader this month, and concentrate on running. 

GO GEAR GODDESSES!!!!!

I'm gone for two weeks out of the month and I've got a 50-mile ride before that. So I'm spending a lot of time tapering. But I'll try to unofficially do 120 miles this month and will donate $10 whether I win or lose.

Ok, sign me up.  I did not participate in the last challenge, but to avoid any hint of sandbagging, I rode 201 in May, so let's go for 250 and a pledge of $20.

I have ridden a meager 22.04 so far this month (I'll get my log started momentarily, bear - this challenge is a great reason to get off my a** and start using the thing) - so I best get butt on bike!

GO GEAR GODDESSES !!!

Cool. I forgot that is another requirement of participants: You do have to use the logs in order to play, as that's where I'm getting the data from.

OK, here’s the first request for an exemption:

Last month’s mileage was 500 miles, but…

I will be on vacation probably the last 7 days in June, locked in a mini-van with no room to bring a bike, much less time to ride it.  In addition, I have an Olympic-distance race next weekend, so that eliminates any long ride for that week as well. That leaves me maybe twenty of the thirty days to actually ride, so I’m thinking 2/3 X 500 = 333.33 miles as an appropriate goal.

Again, this would have to be approved by Renee, but no big deal, I can sit out this month if need be. I'd probably be better off if I did...

If approved, my pledge would be $20.

  1. Bear, being the reasonable Goddesses that we are, your goal is approved.
  2. Put me in for 155 miles, $20 pledge (my mileage for May was 126, do that math). I haven't logged any miles MTD so I need to get in the saddle!

Thanks for organizing this, Bear.

OK, I was completely pathetic on my bike last month so I WOULD be sandbagging if I followed the rules (basically, I could complete the goal just by doing two scheduled races)! I'm going to ride at least 200 miles this month and give $10 if I don't!

Its nice to see the cupcakes bellying up to the bar.  I have not had a chance to review all of the exemptions from the ladies, but I will once I get some time this evening.

By the way, the official name of the guys team is "Testosterbones".  We had a tie on the votes and since I'm in charge, I made the choice.  The other option was "Chix with Balls" which, while good, would make us sound more like gender benders (not that there's anything wrong with that).

I'm in, but I'm going to need lots of support from my fellow goddesses, because this is definitely my weak event, as you will see..

last month 68.9 miles + 20% = 83 miles; I'll pledge 90 miles and $20

Hey, Vixen.  Bear explained it in the first post on this thread - if you go back to page one you can take a gander.

May mileage = 90.5 mile

June goal = 90.5 x 1.2 = 108.6... Make it 110 mile!

Pledge = $10.
