    Anybody else suspect the UBS lot are logging miles done on the exercise bike at their gym...

    Anyway, I hope you all MTFU'd today in the rain, I went the direct route (so only 24 miles to log), but at this time I imagine many won't cycle at all so we can catch them unawares.

    Papa's Got A Brand New Badge! :D

    42-odd miles today. Aiming for a 180-mile week, plus 120 for Highclere on Sunday.
    FCN 2-4.

    Well I utterly ridiculously thought "I'll go a different way home, it'll be further".

    I unleashed a whole world of pain on myself by going up Muswell Hill rather than my friendly Archway Road, and actually only logged an extra mile or so on the normal way home.

    Will try a more interesting route tomorrow.

    ...don't worry, after taking a detour to Westminster, I did Archway for you. Then a few extra miles over Enfield way and that sorted the "CycleStar".

    No more badges, just the satisfaction of getting the most miles and points now.
    I've added a signature to prove it is still possible.

    Yup, insufficient badges- I should be up to Elite by Sunday (a mere 63 miles to go- and I'll want to do at least 70 or 80 to take me past my own ton-a-week target). I want a 'Kicking Bankers' Ass' one....! Or, alternatively.....

    Do we still have people who haven't logged miles? If those folks had managed 20 miles each in the last week we'd be above UBS now. They're drafting, I tells thee.

    If I trying going up through the Lea Valley Park, will I regret it and get stuck going very slowly on rubbish surfaces? I have never cycled that way but could get on at Victoria Park and then I guess come off Enfieldish?

    Who thinks Cyclotherapy might have made an error with their miles?
    9 members 10217 miles logged
    in 9 days :shock: which puts them above us and fourth place overall. Not bad for 9 riders :lol:

    Interviews and the need for suits is playing havoc with normal commute let alone training...

    However I will add over 150 next week to make up for such shocking stats so far... *hangs head*

    Have asked a mate of mine to join, He's a 50 miles a day round tripper and he did the Dragon at the weekend.

    If he does join he'll probably be under the psudonym of Spankstar.

    Should get another 80 in tomorrow. Then 20-30 on Saturday, maybe 60 on Sunday, 40-50 on Monda, then heading off on Wednesday to Paris on the bike, so that'll be another 300-350 miles to go on ! I probably wont get to log them until I get back on the 22nd though, so dont panic.

    But there are internet cafes in Paris aren't there? It is your duty to find one every other day to log the miles. Your team needs you!! :lol:

    As long as the miles get logged by the end of June it's all good :-D

    Maybe you should drop a line to someone at TFL regarding the top 2 UBS mileage contributions...

    Hmmmmm, but have they actually kept on track with their miles? I mean, sure, there's no way of telling, but if we get narky letters from TFL about our mileage...

    Slightly extended commute on the way home, did a lap (as much as I could anyway) of the 3 parks I pass on my way home, Hyde, Holland and Gunnersbury.

    Right, my mate registered under the name Nailedit (or something like that).

    He's anxious to unload the can of whup ass he's carrying around.
