    Well done Nailed It :-)
    Team Stats updated and I've just discovered the joy of macros so it almost automates the whole task :-D

    Will3 has another 250 miles to dump as well (looking at his SCS).

    We need a new challenge. Lets start by overhauling Sky.

    I like your thinking! They are only on 9873 miles with 142 members (I can only assume their whole team must live very close to the office :twisted:) which is well within our reach! That would put us 4th OVERALL :-D

    I say aim for the Beeb. Must be a few big milers we haven't recruited yet! :)

    Stu that goes without saying, but you can only overtake what's in front of you

    Also props to Nailed it for entering on the cool 531 pointage

    Nothing from me today, I'm afraid. Had to sort the car's MOT this morning and, with the garage being right next to my office, I couldn't work out how to get the mileage in.

    Might have a quick spin round the New Cross 'dales' this evening to make up for it.

    I think 3rd or 4th overall is a realistic Target, the BBC team membership is over 300! Sky should be doable but after that its a 4k mile jump to the next team iirc

    Looks like loads of new people have logged some initial miles (more points for the first miles).

    Stinks of rigging to me.

    I have the same complaint Mr Kirby. Nice and comfy on the sofa then the footie comes on and I realise streets will be quiet so off I went :roll:

    Total for the day: 21 - does include shopping trips :)

    There's more to come as I know of a couple who've not entered their dragon or cat miles, plus it's the start of a normal week with no silly tapering or sportives.
    Rule #5 // Harden The Feck Up.
    Rule #9 // If you are out riding in bad weather, it means you are a badass. Period.
    Rule #12 // The correct number of bikes to own is n+1.
    Rule #42 // A bike race shall never be preceded with a swim and/or followed by a run.

    mmmmmmmmm UBS have pulled out a small lead :twisted: Forgive my cynicism but I suspect their margin of victory will be small enough to be credible :roll:

    They still have a points lead and they keep adding new members for the 50 point bonus. Mind, they are now at 93 so if they keep going they will move up a league.

    Looking at it, they have added more members who are adding just enough miles to get the extra points, they are on 93 members now so that tactic will be short lived as they will run out of spaces, mileage wise we are still ahead.

    With any luck they'll duck it up and go up a league.... :twisted:

    Sooner or later, they're just gonna have to MTFU and put some miles in.
