the cheese is looking good from here

fancy telling us about your ride so we can shed copious praise on you as deserved? 

Hi Team - there has been a query with regard to cycle commutes, should they be counted as one stage or two?

Ive already stated that two a day workouts are fine i.e a spin class in the morning and a road ride at night would be two stages BUT a commute could be argued to be different as technically you HAVE to ride both ways...

Personally I think it comes down to how you counted it when you committed your stages... as long as you state how you are counting your commute in the beginning and stick to it I have no major objections but if anyone has a strong opinion regarding this please let me know.

Thanks

Cat

hey all

well done to those who rode y'day.  today is a swim day for me, but watching tdf. was too lazy to get out of bed in time to watch the starts today - oops!

so far i have rides posted for: me, artemis, daman, katz and sledge. anybody else? also when you ride can you let me know how long and how far (doesn't affect the challenge but i think other kat wants to know); hope you are all doing well and GOOD LUCK to shermbelle on his HIM. crazy man!!!

good ride. sounds interesting: where do you live?

also peeps can you let me know if your rides are: flat/rolling, mountainous/hilly or time trial. kat wants to know apparently!

well done so far: we are at a whopping 8 hours 34 minutes and 49 seconds, with a massive 132.54 miles ridden!!!

8.24% of the rides so far

ALLEZ LES VERTES EMMENTALS!!!!!!!!!

Haha thought I would clarify... Cat (me) would like to know time ridden etc so she can compare it to the Tour riders to make this more fun! But if anyone is uncomfortable thats just fine!!!

For Example... I wont be reporting distance because I dont have a  working cycle computer at the moment so it is entirely up to the individual beyond stages.

Im gonna get some stats about the peloton, average speed, distance etc to give us an indication of where we are all at but its all in the name of FUN

well its your judgement call: you want a hilly stage logged or rolling? i think it's all relative. my 'hilly' ride has 300ish feet elevation! my flat: minus 25 feet.

well done to all who rode y'day

My ride yesterday was 31.8 miles, flat/rolling. In fact, all of my rides will be flat/rolling -- we don't have any mountains and not many hills in Florida.

bit like where i live! anything planned for today? 

ok so i never made it swimming...oops!

anyone ride today? can i update my spreadsheet? shermbelle how did you get on? 

Hi team,

I went for a bike ride yesterday evening on the trainer.  So, I didn't go very far .  No biking for me today.  Just a swim.  It was really beautiful out in the ocean.

but you rode well in naners

psyching myself up for a 90min trainer ride later. 

Just a run for me yesterday. 

Wow. You guys are falling apart already....

so that's why i've just got back from a 90min ride :p 

Woo-hoo, way to go captain/big cheese!  I'm not riding today, but I will ride tomorrow.  Happy riding, emmentals.   

It has been raining here all day today. Managed to get a run in, that made me wet. Was thinking of making a short ride (outside of the plan), but when I put my nose outside, it was freezing, so tomorrow I have a plan to make 100k. Wish me luck with that!

Did you see that crash at the Tour today 3km before the end? Damn that was heavy. Spooky even.

Sappho, does your sigline translate to "Go Green Cheese"?

Maybe if you ate less green cheese your team might be able to ride more...Just sayin'
