I shall endeavour to get myself up towards the head of the field over the next couple of months, there's got to be some benefit found from being made redundant and having three months' gardening leave... hey ho!

Very sorry to hear that PB. Hope it works out well for you. Good luck.

Likewise hope the weather is kind during your gardening leave and that the job hunt goes well!

Well this is shaping up to be a good contest, five people squeezing onto February's podium with another four in hot pursuit. Lost a couple of riders at the first (clearly something has gone awry in the file as it's not showing them but am damned if I can see where the issue is...)
Thanks MikeEye and FatCat for the kind words, my intended charge to the front of the field has been delayed by the job search, half-term, a new roof and ticking over on TrainerRoad. All the best everyone.

Haven't entered this year... but it has been extremely easy to clock century rides through this winter... :-)

Three riders down in March - a smidge of daylight for the top two with seven others fighting hard for the wheel and third place on the podium. At least now the clocks have gone forward, just need it to warm up a bit! Stay safe...

Svetty - have had to guess at your April rides as a large chunk of your data is missing, can you update please and I can amend if necessary.
Cruff and Dish_Dash have big months and the front of the bunch stays nice and compact, shaping up to be a good contest!

Not sure what's happened as my posting on 1st page looks OK to me. Only 4 points in April:

6th April 168k 1 point Total 14 points
13th April 173k 1 point Total 15 points (Paris-Roubaix challenge)
17th April 100k 1 point Total 16 points
20th April 120k 1 point Total 17 points

Cheers!

Bizarre. I can see it all now, laptop must have been having a temporary moment. Four was a lucky guess, cheers for confirming.

is it too late to join in? Have likely done a metric each month, need to double check?

A month for the D's: Durrin, Dish_dash and diplodicus bang in some big numbers to join Cruff and Svetty on a crowded podium. Keep it up chaps, making for a good contest this year...

Biggest numbers of the year so far as advantage is taken of long days. Fat Cat has a monster month and jumps to fourth on the leader board: five points separate the top five with a pair of pairs in hot pursuit. Chapeau to Phil485 for doing the Cingles de Ventoux

Durrin comes to play on the podium with his second big month of the summer but Cruff keeps his nose in front with another steady month. Svetty holds off Diplodicus for third... for now.

Biggest numbers of the year so far as advantage is taken of long days. Fat Cat has a monster month and jumps to fourth on the leader board: five points separate the top five with a pair of pairs in hot pursuit. Chapeau to Phil485 for doing the Cingles de Ventoux

Normal service will be resumed from now on, following my LEJOG last month

Chapeau!

Durrin leaps to the top step courtesy of the cycling behemoth that is P-B-P: well done sir! Cruff holds second and it looks like we'll have four fighting for the final podium position as we enter autumn. School holidays, endless decorating and this working five days a week lark do for me, it'll soon be 2020 though... safe riding everyone.

The top two maintain their pace at the head of the field whilst there is a small split in the chasing pack: Svetty & Diplodicus stay neck-and-neck for third as Dish_dash and Fat Cat fall slightly off their pace... watch out for CarbonClem coming back into contention!

phil485 · October 2019

I think I've got couple of September rides hiding down the back of the sofa. must update but currently October looks like it might end my run.

Apologies for the format being a bit 'busy', clearly the MCC file - which is a little ancient - isn't playing too well with the new forum format. Am searching for answers. Belated big news from the head of affairs as Durrin does a MvdP during the Worlds and suffers a double leg puncture, leaving Cruff out in front. Svetty & Diplodicus battle over 2nd & 3rd with three more in valiant pursuit.

I'm having trouble getting my account reactivated with the new forum design. I _did_ do a ride in October though...

edit: now I managed to get access and have edited my old post.

@durrin: thanks for the technical advice with the table, much appreciated. The race jury also brings you back in after forum-related challenges meaning that we are set for a battle to rival any General Election

. Three tussles at the top of the leader board going in to December, who will prevail?

Well done to those who have already got their December rides in, bring on 2020!

phil485 · December 2019

Thank you for sorting it all out Pollys Bot. My first attempt at the challenge and its provided a much needed kick up the whatsit some months. Planning on getting 2020 going and joining in again.

cruff · December 2019

My training plan has sufficient base rides in it to get me a few in this month, but the weather has been so shocking that I'm not sure I'll be able to do any of them outdoors - sod's law that the last weekend gone wasn't too horrendous weather wise, but I only had a couple of sub three hour rides on the schedule

It's been good to use this as a motivator earlier in the year when I wasn't working to a plan - if I bother with the BR forums at all next year (that's debatable at the moment!) then I'll definitely sign up for it again

Cheers PB!

phil485 · December 2019

Got my December ride in on the 29th, nothing like leaving it till the last.

cruff · December 2019

Done for the year. Rest week on the last week of the year meant I only got one in over Christmas - suspect when Durrin uploads he'll have done me with a 500km ride round Sweden or summat

Well done to you all for completing the 2019 MCC, and especially to this year's winner Cruff! Great battles at the head of the field all year long between several of you ending up with Cruff steadily closing the gap to Durrin over the autumn and taking him on the December line. Notable mention to CarbonClem for a Festive-500-fuelled monster month which nearly saw him pinch the final podium spot from Diplodicus, and chapeau to StanThomas for gaining the lanterne rouge.

See you all next / this year - be safe.

Thank you for administering this PB. I did take it a bit too seriously in December but realised it was too little too late a podium place was out of reach.

Can't win a bike race but I can win this

:

Thanks for all the work in collating and scoring this - I found it was a good motivator after getting knocked off my bike earlier in the year and ruining my race season - at least this gave me something to aim for!

Sounds weird but hopefully next year I won't win this cos I'll be racing too often to check in regular 100km training rides

Thanks for running this PB. I'm out for 2020 having missed Jan due to bruised ribs from a mtb crash, then travel.
