Rule #24 to be specific :laugh:0

I agree we should all be on km. But we're not... No problem to change over my Strava acct. I mostly look at GarminConnect for my own stuff.
I like these rules better:

ultimately it doesn't matter which rules you quote, there's one reason why it's in Km's and Metres. Because that's how the Giro is measured, and therefore, that's how my challenge is measured :bigsmile:0

I've finally accessed MFP on my PC again (after almost exclusively using it on my phone) ...
So now I see what it's all about!!!
Shame - I'd've like to play!0 -

I'd still ride and log TBH Chris, as we usually have at least one person who hasn't read the rules, and can't understand/won't comply with the logging requirements. And as one or two old-stagers will remember, I have NO qualms about showing them the door and drafting someone else in...0 -

Try and stop me!
Our planned Peak District training camp has been cancelled (due to my riding buddy's son going into hospital) so I've entered a nice long Audax on Sunday instead. 200km in the New Forest? Don't mind if I do!
Would you mind letting me know if I get in by PM or posting on my wall (just in case I don't get to access the boards)? Sorry to be a pain.
Cheers,
Chris0 -

Rides thread and photo thread both unlocked and ready for submissions folks...
Time to ride, let's be careful out there...0 -
Random question,
for those of us that commute during the week to and from work, are both our rides going to be accepted if saved separately or are we going to have to keep strava/GPS open for the day so that rides are recorded as one ride with a large break in the middle?0 -

Record them separately, add the distances, times and altitudes together and declare a single line total value, but with 2/3/howevermany url's composed the total. Same goes for anyone on a big ride, who want to break the ride into a few sections if they're worried their phone is a little flaky, or they just don't want to have a big pause in the middle of the recording while they stop at the pub for lunch.0 -
I'm always fashionably late to the party. Feel free to add me to the alternates list. I will read up on the ruulz.
