49.16 of the most scariest treacherous miles i hope to ever complete! http://connect.garmin.com/activity/299353981 +50mph gusts and a constant 30mph headwind, rain that was stinging my bottom lip so bad that i had to poke my tongue out to protect it! (first ride with a proper cycling cap so at least my vision was good and…

I found it gruelling to be totally honest, i wasn't prepared enough but there was <11,000ft of climbing overall! i started getting cramps half way around, which just became more & more severe the longer it went on, this is where getting the nutrition/hydration right is very important. I can so relate to this comment! I…

Well Done! Snot bombs away, hold one nostril closed and blow them suckers out! (make sure there are no other cyclists behind you first though :laugh: ) I don't wear prescriptions myself but I do wear cycling specific glasses that don't suffer from fogging, try wearing a cycling specific cap to minimise the rain deposits or…

Here's an extract from a sportive training document that i read prior to my event, these are not my comments but have a read yourself... SPORTIVE TRAINING/BIKE TIPS The following will cover two main areas; the bike and the man riding it! Contrary to popular opinion, cycling isn’t just about getting fit and climbing aboard…

20-21st July narak I ventured into road biking in January 2012 & took part in a 130 mile sportive in June that year, so 3 months is a bit ambitious but i'm sure it can be done with the right attitude! You really need to getting regular high mileage rides in, you'll probably be spending the best part of 8 hours in the…

I cycled +3000 miles last year, I'm shooting for a target of 1,000 miles this month and I got a couple of century sportives lined up for May/June. I started commuting 50 miles per day during the warmer/lighter/drier months last year, trying to make it more often than not this year, aiming for a 6000 mile year target. I ran…

Just too windy for the road bike today (in my opinion, had a couple of scary descents lately which have put me off!) so left it as long as i could and when it was clear that the wind was here to stay for the day i finally opted for my +30LB 29er, good choice in the end! maybe the mileage isn't there but at least i didn't…

Team Spokes - 7th April - 64.75 miles

I'm in for the duration, aiming for 1000 miles for the month to keep me super motivated, day 5 and I got 82 in so far, but it's going to increase greatly when I start commuting 50 miles a day again on Monday.

I can answer this for you, you're comparing data from cloggsy's graph, which originally compared the points against a list that tby put up with wrong info, he has since corrected this so I believe the 45 points is accurate.

Team Spokes - 5th April - 28.35 miles

Snack = Croissants Post ride = Kronenbourg 1664 Bonus = Pictures of dirty face/bike combo.

Under the circumstances I think you're excused!

The points don't match the last update? (the one which shows the results from the 4 classics)

Team Spokes - 3rd April - 40.53 miles :happy:

Is it too late to join this? My April goal is 1000 miles.
