I partially retract my comment above about giving up on KOM hunting. It was windy at lunch and I could not help myself!!

Trouble is Lachy that your Bryton will give you issues and you will have to go 501 times
or even better 'clear memory' and go again, but you love it don't you, you sicko

Lost satellite contact and ended up with:

I'm taking the average of 28.6 on the Rig SS!
Maybe it's the Chinese mucking around with things up in the atmosphere. My Strava went berserk after stopping at Mcgee's Cycling store.

Anyone else finding problems.

Good luck, you have the mental strength that's all that's required doing that many reps and a spare day.

Just noticed that you cannot delete a weekly progress goal:

How utterly stupid. You can delete your entire Strava account, but deleting something so basic as a progress goal cannot be removed?

That's just one problem with Strava. I wonder how many people would sign up and pay for the whole membership thing if Strava worked for them properly. I find that every time Strava changes the setup, my access changes and various 'good things' about Strava disappear.
The recent change (download Garmin application) doesn't work for me so I download from the computer.
And they never ask for feedback - otherwise they would know how frustrating the site has become.

Not long till the Rapha Festive 500 is among us again.This is what I roughly have planned. Might swap a few things around to suit the legs but hopefully they'll be up for it

Day 01 - 149km: http://www.strava.com/routes/104166" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Day 02: Rest/Gentle ride somewhere on Christmas Day
Day 03 - 293km: http://www.strava.com/routes/104213" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Day 04: Yet to finalize
Day 05 - 190km: Yet to finalize. Maybe a train trip out to Ipswich and hit up the Brisbane Valley Rail Trail or spend the day cycling around Ipswich/Boonah/Grandchester/Harrisville/Aratula. http://www.strava.com/routes/104763" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; (IIRC about 10km of gravel road along Greys Plains Road and 7km of gravel road along Rosewood-Aratula Road - The rest should be dirt free but when you see the views along the route who gives a damn about some dirt)
Day 06 - 307km: http://www.strava.com/routes/104132" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Day 07 - 165km: http://www.strava.com/routes/104183" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Day 08: Yet to finalize
Day 09: Passed out on a floor/couch somewhere

Should be a fun little Tour If anyone wants to tag along for a ride youre more than welcome to join in. Some of the rides like the Ipswich one should be easy. I've set that ride up for the excellent views in that region rather than the difficulty of climbing them

[DTdotcom]

I have an option for you on Day 4 and anyone else in Bris that's looking for kms

[Lukeyboy]

Hence the yet to finalize Have you guys thought of a meeting point/time yet? Still Logan Village?

There's no respect around here Geoff. Aren't you meant to be frozen to an armchair or something

[cancan64]

I am only doing the Rapha Festive 500 not the 5000 so dont need all those km

Can possibly join in on day 4 or day 5...both will kill me but Dimma's day 4 option is closer to home

[ldrcycles]

Dude an imperial century the day after a triple metric? That's gunna hurt .

Something like that. Been out a couple of times here - average speeds tend to decline a lot when there is ice on the roads!

Looks like I'll be buying a new shirt soon

i like that shirt. do you have to complete the challenge to buy one (not doing it)?

[Ignoto]

I have an option for you on Day 4 and anyone else in Bris that's looking for kms

I'm definitely interested in a new route!

As I have NFI about the roads outside of the Western suburbs, I'll have to go buy a iPhone 5 handlebar mount if there's a lot of turns

[Lukeyboy]

I think you get a link to buy it after completing the challenge??? Might even be available from the rapha or strava store.
