Welcome Ladies and Gentlemen to the 2012 MyFitnessPal Tour de France Mileage Challenge.
This thread is solely for entering ride details into. Please keep all questions, discussions or general banter and inter-team trash talking in the discussion thread ( http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/619261-tour-de-france-challenge-21-days-in-july )
To attempt to simplify matters, I'd appreciate if everyone could please post their rides in as close a format to the example below:
16/06/2012 - 37.85km - 2h17m16s - 409m - http://connect.garmin.com/activity/189489816
17/06/2012 - 55.78km - 2h31m18s - 474m - http://connect.garmin.com/activity/189799150
18/06/2012 - 90.65km - 3h36m59s - 320m - http://connect.garmin.com/activity/190328912
19/06/2012 - 49.23km - 2h20m12s - 424m - http://connect.garmin.com/activity/190663418
20/06/2012 - no ride
21/06/2012 - no ride
22/06/2012 - 36.24km - 2h05hm51s - 298m - http://connect.garmin.com/activity/191551618
There is no specific requirement for the rides to be logged via GPS, though it would be nice if as many people as possible could do so - as
a) it makes it nice and transparent for everyone re: the average speeds, altitude climbed etc. and
b) It could just give me some entertainment seeing the fascinating range of terrains we all cover :laugh:
If you DO post ride tracks, please ensure that you leave them visible - the number of times I've posted a link to one of my rides, only to be told "it's restricted view!"
So... To summarise
1) You don't have to ride every day that the tour riders do, just ride as often as you can, at a sustainable level - no point in riding 3 back to back centuries and then being restrained to the couch for the next 14 days.
2) It's not **really** a race - don't go out and ride at stupid dangerous speeds and hurt yourselves. It's not big, or clever, and I can't afford the lawsuits that would ensue :laugh:
3) Post your ride details as soon as you are easily able to do so - i'll not actually be publishing results for a given day until I've got all ride details (or nulls) from everyone. Also - if you're "on tour" or away from t'internet, don't sweat it - we'll get there eventually. When I've entered your ride, I'll stick an edit in the bottom of the post to say it's sorted (they made me a mod for the group, so I can do little tricks like that - it's a little neater than an extra post confirming things)
4) Ride logging commences 00:01am (in your own local time zone) on 30th June 2012. Logging ends at 23:59pm (again, local TZ) on 22nd June 2012. For night rides that may cross from one day to the next, I reserve the right to log them in whichever day may need the extra mileage
5) It's all for fun and fitness - so go out there and enjoy it...
