Here it is! 10/10 ........... Goal met, althougth not nearly as many stages as some of my fellow compadres'. Keep it rollin Team!

Bike ride it was! Probably one of my best hill climbs ever! Absolutely smoked the Gov. Way to Trails Rd. hill! Never dropped under 12.1 mph, keeping it consistently between 13 & 16 mph for the nearly 3 mile climb. I be ver' much happy w/ this one!!

1h 15m 15.13 miles 12.10 miles/hr

hill repeats inspired by the last Pyrenees stage
7/10 Stages completed

Good eve all,

I did Stage 17/21 today: 1:35:09//23.59 mi//Avg mph: 14.88  did Hill repeats 'cause the guys in the Tour were climbing today too.

Have a good night team

Chris

MAJORITY OF BT BARLOWORLD TEAM ALREADY IN PARIS ...

Yawning, tapping feet, wondering when you guys might catch up ... I guess young, fresh energy gets you a long way. Like, to the finish line for a team win. Hope our wake tastes good!

I may have melted just a little bit.

17/21 Commute: 6.87mi  40min  10:31mph  377'climb

This challenge is really getting my butt in gear!

Good eve Team:

Well I figured that with it coming to a close I'd better get my rides posted.

18/21  1:47:11// 29.35 mi // Avg MPH 16.43

19/21  1:10:22// 15.21mi//Avg Mph 13.0 I was tired today but got it done..not fast but I swam today(I know but I had to think of something   )

Have a great night and remember TT tomorrow.

Chris

Well after a really, really long and tough Bike/run brick I have completed to date   

 20/21  3:50:36// 58.75mi //Avg Mph: 15.29

then I ran (well I call it running ) for a whole 15min.

Good night team and will update tomorrow after the final stage of LeTour.

Chris

Well Team, I indeed have completed my Tour.  I rode my last stage this morning while I watched the Tour.

21/21    1:05:08// 15.53mi//Avg Mph: 14.3   

I want to thank all the team for your inspires and support! There were a few days that I just didn't want to climb on the bike but I didn't want to let yall down. And I am glad that I did this. My biking is stronger....not very much faster but this too will come. And I have new defination in my legs that I guess only riding almost everyday can get you. I am going to keep riding lots and take what I have learned from this challenge to my other workouts and see what happens. (yes that incluldes my nemisis , the swim   )  I'll figure out all my hours and miles for the other thread later tonight.  Have a great week Team!!

Chris 

Congrats to everyone on the Challenge: I had a blast....well most of the time.

I have my totals for the Challenge: Hours: 31:19.20  and Miles: 469.6

I'm happy with that and will use it as a bench mark for the rest of my training season.

Have a great week guy and ladies.

Chris

Hey - fun challenge everyone!

My bonus 9th ride went well. I placed 21st out of 306 for the bike portion of my tri!!! 36:13 for 12 miles.  Practically pro speed. On a slow day. Uphill. LOL!

Thanks Spokes for keeping track of us! Thanks Cat for getting this all organized!!!
