    Ok so lets do this to start. If you want to join the challenge you can do one of four weekly mile goals. pick from the following
    15 miles
    30 miles
    60 miles
    or
    100 miles

    Just PM me that you want to join the group and what mile goal you want to work toward. Then each monday shoot me a PM with the total miles you rode for that week and I will keep track of it so I can post it for your fellow riders to see once a week. Oh and of course we can come to the thread to shop talk about cycling and support each other as we work toward our cycling goals. how's that sound?

    You dont have too, you just click on the name above my avatar and it will bring you to my profile. then you can click on send message and do it that way. but feel free to friend request me!

    I guess there is only one thing left to settle on...what shall we call ourselves?

    My suggestion is Spitfire Bikers. Hahaha.

    For this reason, mainly:
    Regarded as No. 1 in Top 10 Fighters, Supermarine Spitfire became the stuff of legend with its involvement in the Battle of Britain. Another related name from same battle is Hawker Hurricane but Spitfire still stands apart. The name itself carries a lot of meaning and is enough to promote team spirit

    Suggestions, people! :bigsmile:
