My GP has forced my hand, no cycling until the swelling on my knee is gone. Sad times indeed, I even had to fill the car up with petrol during the week.
The top 5 is looking pretty set as well. All the action looks like it is the battle for 6th.

as an FYI - my commuting kms this year would not have got me in the top 3 when gretaboy and tailwind were commuting

Yes and I would be lucky to be ion the top 10 rather than the top 5.jasonc wrote:disappointing for you releng. and for me. i always had to keep checking over my shoulder

Four weeks left on the bike for the year for me and given my speed is beginning to slow and I am feeling fatigued there will be no more extended rides. I'm just about cooked but have made the 7500km target I set for myself this year.
We should try to see if we can get more members for next year and try to get past 30 people riding in the challenge.

especially with auto upload from garmin connect to endomondo, it's simple. the only manual step is changing the activity to cycling (transport)westab wrote:We should try to see if we can get more members for next year and try to get past 30 people riding in the challenge.

challenge is currently open to anyone in Oz. This rules out TW and cancan. i will close the challenge at the end of Jan and restrict it to current participants. happy to close it all off earlier if everyone joins up quickly.
would like to get kb to look at using the strava "commute" metric

I can try. I drove to work 20 times this year so if I halve that top 10 may be in reach.jasonc wrote:so top 10 next year?Mugglechops wrote:I am in again. Looks like I will end up in 11th with only 4 days of work left.

I don't know how consistent I will be with remembering to turn on two apps for each commute, because I'll still use Strava to track my parts usage, but I hope I can get into the habit, and that my phone battery can sustain it.
Cheers,
Cameron

export from strava and import to endomondo. alternatively, buy a garmin. it connects to garmin connect an auto uploads to strava and endomondoironhanglider wrote:I signed up,

The trouble is I don't have even a basic computer on my bikes any more, let alone a Garmin. I don't really want to have to do a manual upload too often.
The good news is that I tested running both apps on the phone today and they worked ok. The battery still had lots of life left when I got home, so it should all be ok as long as I don't use the phone for frivolous stuff during the day. I put the icons next to each other, so I don't tax my memory excessively.
Cheers,
Cameron

Thanks for the fun, been a good year. I finish work on Friday so I am not going to catch caneye for 8th. CX commuter still has a chance to bridge the 240km to steal the prize for 9th.Mugglechops wrote:I am in again. Looks like I will end up in 11th with only 4 days of work left.
Next year will be good, but I can't see me doubling my commuting to challenge Jasonc

My commute to work is about 30 km, but I only do it about once a week. Even if I double that, I won't be much threat to the rest of you. Mainly doing it for extra motivation, so thanks for that!

However, I'm off work after 23 Jan and back on 16 Jan. I'll be starting well behind and it will take months to catch up.
