Rapha Rising 2015

Looks to be outside of the world of Strava this year...anyone know how this will be monitored or any more info at all than the Rapha site has?

Mainly assuming it's not on Strava due to the big Giro climbing challenge that's going live this week, think two big climbing challenges running concurrently would be a bit odd.

There is only one Rapha Rising.

Can't you use garmin connect? or just write it all down on a spreadsheet and send it in?

No idea how it will work without Strava. Maybe they'll base it purely on everyone's unique way of entering. Hard to police.

Anyone else wasting their evenings doing this?

According to the Rapha page about 2500, think last year it maxed out at 40,000 on Strava.

it's one of those things that nobody in the world understands, and it's pretty hard to convince anyone that spending every evening on the same hill is worthwhile. but it obviously is.
