Points? There are points? I need to review the rules!

I used to post all my rides, including Lunacy Distance rides, in the HMCAM challenge... so all the points were accumulated in one place. But it got confusing as to which was a qualifying ride in any month so I split the Lunacy Distance rides out. The totals in the Lunacy challenge are 'carried forward' to each of my posts in the HMCAM challenge to give a 'total points in all challenges' figure.

@steverob still posts all his Lunacy rides in the HMCAM challenge so he's got all his points in one place. I just thought it was easier (and fairer to @13 rider) to split them out.
