I'm in.
So let me get this straight all I have to do is ride my bike and log my miles. It doesn't even have to be for commuting? Great!Food Chain number = 4
A true scalp is not only overtaking someone but leaving them stopped at a set of lights. As you, who have clearly beaten the lights, pummels nothing but the open air ahead. ~ 'DondaddyD'. Player of the Unspoken Game0 -

They don't stipulate is has to be miles done commuting so any and all miles you ride are fair game :-) I suspect tho that is why they have implemented the sliding points scale so it rewards shorter rides. I'm guessing so it gives those a chance that are doing many short rides (could we submit the Magnificat as 12*10 mile rides and a 6 miler??)0 -
How do they validate the miles ridden?Food Chain number = 4

I need to buy a new computer for the Kharma anyway since 'Garmingate' happened.
So this is a good excuse, strap it on first of June, jotting down daily miles and then using the total miles at theend of the month to confirm.Food Chain number = 4

I paid for it, but then there were some delivery complications pertaining to the delivery address and address on my card. I didn't like the solution they suggested so I cancelled the order. Then some other stuff went down impacting on the Garmin fund, so no Garmin for a while.Food Chain number = 4

Has anyone tried the route finder next to the team details?
Haha.
Mine says my journey to work should average 94 minutes, and I'm not surprised considering the route they give. It takes very back road and ally to avoid LRR, Fulham Palace Road, Hammersmith Roulette Wheel and Shepherd's Bush, so I'm not surprised.Mud - Genesis Vapour CCX
Race - Fuji Norcom Straight
Sun - Cervelo R3
Winter / Commute - Dolan ADX0 -

Don't think they can, not that I'm condoning anyone on the team to lie......I fully expect us to clock up a rather impressive amount of legit miles!
Same with the stats or dailymile etc,
I'm sure they've have questions if a team of chubby keyboard warriors doing 40 miles a day won it for example
Oh and btw I've invited my mate to this he should notch 20-30 a day plus he will do a fair whack at the weekendsPurveyor of sonic doom

Was planning on adding weekend miles and London to Brighton...Food Chain number = 4

Well done gents (I think I can say that as I don't recall any women signing up!) we're up to 21 members on the team now :-)
Me thinks it might be time to try and enlist peoples via the Facebook.........sorry if your a member of "The Game", ignore the message which will arrive shortly!0 -

Either the TfL journey planner comes up with something nice and sensible that any out-of-towner can follow, or it comes up with something nuts. Sometimes one of each for a return journey..usually the latter.Dahon Speed Pro TT; Trek Portland

Emphatically not a problem for us yokels to sign up. Nothing in the rules about London-only riders or mileage, though it does say 'people who live, work, or study in Greater London'. The more the merrier.Dahon Speed Pro TT; Trek Portland

Make that 34.Training is like fighting with a gorilla. You don’t stop when you’re tired. You stop when the gorilla is tired.0

Is it just an overall aggregate mileage that counts regardless of the number of people in the team, or is it averaged out? I wouldn't want to join and find that my relatively paltry mileage drags you all down!0
