Strava Base Mile Blast - January 2013

[Lukeyboy]

be a shame if Brisbane floods again and you blokes are house bound for a few weeks

It'll take more than that

Not many crocks down this way so we don't have to worry about that unlike our flooded friends up north. Although there were "apparently" shark sightings around Goodna/Oxley or something...

Received my 600 mile badge today but kudos to you guys with 1,000 miles, great effort.

shock horror. another crappy mobile phone strava activity.

[Riggsbie]

Just got the 400 mile badge

But the last 40 miles were in the last 2 weeks due to my gimpy back going into "lockdown", it's been 20 times harder than real world riding due to the nerve pain and muscle spasms in my left side

It is improving so might try a short real world ride on Saturday !

I'm 20 miles short of the 600 badge and it looks like the heavens are about to spew forth!
Should have gone to NZ this weekend instead of last one when the weather was fine!

Small problem, I don't have one!

[brett.hooker]

Well if you get stuck for 20 miles come borrow mine!!! Can't have you miss by that small a number!!!

[gretaboy]

Got the 1000 mile badge this morning...I am chuffed because all miles are commute miles, no weekend rides nor indoor trainers

It's ok brett - weather will come good Tuesday just in times to go back to work.
like mm I'm 12 miles short of the 600 mile badge....
could have got to work this morning, getting home will be a different story. so I'm in the excuses thread today.

[brett.hooker]

Haha... I am in the big excuses... I have 230km to go until 600 miles and the days are ticking away...

[Mugglechops]

Got to 369miles this morning and that is all.

Off to Hospital now for an elbow op

Well done gretaboy!

I've got work to do to make 600miles by month end. My bike has been off the road for a few days and I don't have a backup, plus I got 3 days out next week due to an early morning training course... Hopefully I can get some decent rides in on Sunday and Monday.

from bom:

Heavy rainfall which may lead to flash flooding is likely over the Capricornia, Wide Bay and Burnett, eastern parts of the Central Highlands and Coalfields, and northern parts of the Southeast Coast district, possibly reaching areas north of Brisbane late in the day. Areas between St Lawrence and Brisbane, and inland to about Emerald may be affected. Six hour rainfall accumulations of 100 to 200mm are possible.

[BrisVegas]

geez you're a buzzkill jason.

[darkelf921]

There was no way I was heading out this morning. I woke at 4:40am to gale force winds blowing torrential rain into the house. I looked at the trees swaying and decided it was time to have a day off this month

Double the distance tomorrow to make up for it. Hopefully I'll get the 800 in a few days.

[Puffy]

Just got my 600, I'm at the limit of spousal tollerance.....

And may I remind you of rule #9!

[BrisVegas]

might have to start counting walking miles towards this. Tried to catch the bus home yesterday and spent 45 mintues in gridlock on Ann and George streets, before giving up and walking home. Brisbane just goes a little crazy when it rains. Caught the bus again this morning, but need to find a way to get back to the bike shop tonight before 6pm to collect my bike. Shank's pony most likely...

Really need an n+1 bike.

[jasonc]

geez you're a buzzkill jason.

It's hurting me too you realise. I had a coot-tha-fest weekend planned. And I can't ride next weekend unless someone wants to look after a 4 year old (she's not really ready for coot-tha)

[brett.hooker]

It's nice to get some rain... But same; I did have an awesome long weekend of rides lines up including a mt gravatt + mt cotton double just for fun...

Oh well, all in time...

Indoor trainer it is tonight...

I missed all of jan on holidays - could smash out 200 a day for the rest of the month though, I suppose o_O

I'm tempted to go out and buy one and hook my commuter ride up, old Dolce hasnt seen much action of late...I've been riding the TF2 home of an afternoon!

Looking at the Sufferfest downloads as well...
