Clydesdale Community Challenge—Part III

[Jman]

I have been re-reading the Cyldes Challenge and it has motivated me – 324 miles since March 25. I know we didn’t make the goal the first 2 years but, I thought it would help to try it again. Just like before, we’ll track the cumulative miles and see where we end up. It starts today and ends 10/30/2011 – the goal, as before, is 40,000 miles.

5/6/2011 Cumulative Miles: 0 + 26 = 26

40 thousand miles in 238 days? Wow! That is some goal. That works out to 168 miles per day. Since you only did 26 yesterday that means you fell short by a whopping 122 miles yesterday. If you make up that shortfall over the next week you will have to ride 185 miles per day to get back on track. That is easily 10 hours of riding but more like 15-18 for a rider like me and I don't think I could do that again tomorrow. Since I work I wonder when I will sleep.

 

[Jman]

That's why it is called a "Community Challenge" -- meaning the mileage of all the Clydes summed up over the next 6 months needs to sum to 40,000 miles.

5/8/2011 Cumulative Miles: 26 + 30 = 56

It started on Friday? Right?

This is Fri, Sat, Sun.

56+100+46+7=209

 

[Jman]

Friday it is. Along with your $20M you can log some pretty good numbers-- it will be along while before I can do that, but I am trying. Glad to have you aboard.

209+20=229 miles

 

[BHOFM]

229+48=277

Good day for me to add on to the list....

277 + 19 (AM ride) + 9 (PM ride) = 305

 

[Crocosis]

Commute to work: 12.71 miles
Commute from work: 13.24miles = 25.95 + 305= 330.95 miles

 

[brianwohlgemuth]

330.95 + 5.08 = 336.03. Round down to 336. Had to catch a flight in IND so only a 23 min sprint around the country roads in my town.

 

[maydog]

336 + 119 = 455

 

[Jman]

455 + 18 = 473

Not a good day out there today! Going to Tennessee this week -- no riding for the next 9 days.

 

[BHOFM]

Not really a ride, just ran some errands.

473+22=495

 

[Crocosis]

31.2 miles yesterday and 12.7 today = 43.9 + 495= 538.9 miles

 

[brianwohlgemuth]

3.5 + 10.5 + 538.9 = 552.9

Quick ride last night and a ride to the YMCA and back this morning.. Hopefully more later!

Did 9.4 miles on 05/11/2011

9.4+552.9=562.3

 

[brianwohlgemuth]

and add 8.3 to meet the wife for lunch.

562.3 + 8.3 = 570.5

 

[maydog]

570.5 + 58 = 628.5

 

[Crocosis]

628.5 + 25.7= 654.2
