Looks like we have 19 guys and 33 ladies, by my count. So is this thing based on sheer numbers?? I mean if they outnumber us almost 2 to 1, does that get taken into consideration? I guess there would be lots of ways to measure - total miles, average miles per person, average % increase from last month, etc... {{{sigh}}}Read my initial post. We will average the %-of-goal-completion of the individual team members, throwing out the highest and the lowest. Edited by the bear 2005-06-07 1:13 PM |

The month of May I had 328 miles, so put me down for 400 for June and $20 donation. Oh, I've got 80 in the bank so far this month!  OK, max, is that for the girls or the guys? After seeing your cross-dress shot, I think you could go either way. I'm willing to play for the team that has the best fringe benefits! So what are you guys offering? |

We can almost guarantee you won't be the ugliest one on the team, Again, having seen your cross-dress shot, you would have a lock on that position if you were a Gear Goddess. |

| Champion 8903 | Subject: RE: The Official June "Ride Lot's Cycling Challenge" Sign-up Thread Hmmm...Bear, I'm thinkin' you might want to stay out of the girls camp for a bit. Now maybe if my wife had let me wear the REST of the outfit, I mighta stood a chance! No...on second thought, nothing could have improved that tacky photo! OK...it's settled. I'm not sure of the demograhpics here, but I'm thinking the odds are stacked pretty heavily against the Goddesses...so as long as I don't have to ride in that skirt or any other sort of camisole, bustier, or other garment that takes 2 persons to put on, I'd be willing to post my mileage to the Goddesses camp. And heaven forgive me for what I have done! Edited by max 2005-06-07 1:30 PM |

Resident Curmudgeon 25290 The Road Back Gold member | Subject: RE: The Official June "Ride Lot's Cycling Challenge" Sign-up Thread OK, here's the first pass at the spreadsheet, links to logs kind of primitive but workable. Looks like we have 24 men to 35 women, but the men have higher average goals and higher average pledges. Let me know if you find any errors. Some of you with androgenous names (Chris) may have been put on the wrong teams. And, no max, despite your tendencies you have to be on the men's team.

Just remember that bears eat stinky little possums as hors d'ouvres. No, zg, it was a smart-ass comment, go for 40 if you think that's an appropriate goal. |
