Can I ask what SPCC & PSP stand for?

Oh, and sli123 that's some impressive riding.

257LL I have started carrying a banana with me on almost every ride (unless I know I'm just doing a short 30km - 40km ride), usually eat it around the 50km to 60km mark.

Thanks briztoon.
PSP stands for principle shared path (i think). The Kwinana shared path runs right alongside the Kwinana freeway and there's very few peds once you get about 10k's from the city.
SPCC is the South Perth Cycling Club.
Cheers,
Stuart.

It seemed like a good idea at the time. Actually ensuring I could do the ACE 250 in 2 weeks time. I doubt I will keep this level of activity up after January!

I got another one. After the club ride this morning I still had plenty of time and legs for another 50.

It would be appreciated please if you could log your rides as per the guidance in the opening post. It just makes it that much easier to record the details.

Thanks

Hi Everyone

Nice work by all. I have decided to just keep the record of rankings in a spreadsheet which you can access here. Easier than trying to repost the data here each time.

Well done to sli23 who has managed to just hold off Eleri for the top spot

Thanks @duds2u. Got you in the spreadsheet now.

Nice work @Gassey. You are looking good.

@grantw. Well done on having a go. Nice start.

The spreadsheet has been updated and should be showing here (fingers crossed).

Stoopid rain. I had a new ride mapped out for today (monday) that included a few more hills and this crappy weather settled in. Yeah I know, I'm gonna get some of the typical htfu comments. But after Sundays ride in the rain, I can say I don't enjoy it that much (I had just started up Camp Hill when the heavens pissed down Sunday).

Got a serious case of the bicycle ride joneses at the moment.

I don't blame you. Riding in traffic in the rain sounds so little like fun.
It's dry out here. Get in your car and drive west until the blue stuff appears. Gatton to Toowoomba up the range FTW.
