TFL Cycle Challenge - Team SCR??

There is a scoring system in place for the miles:* 0 – 10 miles = 5 points
* 11 -20 miles = 2 points
* 20 + miles = 1 point
I'm guessing that is points per mile so a 10 mile commute will score 50 points (10 miles @ 5 points per mile)
As June is a big month for Sportives and I think I've collared most of the SCRer's who are taking part in the Dragon/Magnificat and the various L2P rides I think we should do fairly well.0 -
It'd be a shame for my miles to go to waste. Joined.0

Officially my miles won't count unless you can somehow class Bristol as very Outer London Anybody want to bag my miles for this or is that cheating?I've added a signature to prove it is still possible.0

It's not limited to Londoners :-)
The rules state "Cycle Challenge is open to people aged over 18 who live, work or study in Greater London". Pretty sure they didn't when I signed up, but I might have missed it....Dahon Speed Pro TT; Trek Portland

Bother. Pretty sure that wasn't there when I signed up too... That makes my miles invalid I guess, unless you really want to stretch the interpretation of the rules: I do occasionally work (once a month I'd estimate) in Greater London, so on that basis alone, I could be in.Sometimes parts break. Sometimes you crash. Sometimes it’s your fault.0 -

Is it just me or does this seem very open to abuse? I mean who verifies mileage? Any old fat slob could claim to have done 500 miles last week and claim the prize and who could prove otherwise? Am I just being cynical of human nature?Do not write below this line. Office use only.0

No, I've put the round trip in.
Cheeky, I know but if I don't cycle home tonight then it means I've got much, much bigger things to be concerned with than my stats.
I can't make the trip any shorter, so if I go further, which is very rare, I'll top it up tomorrow.Mud - Genesis Vapour CCX
