So 2016 is coming to a close.
As of today, 12 people have completed the 2016 challenge, the same number of riders as 2015.
4 of 2016's riders gaining maiden Gold stars.

It's only a few days until 2017's challenge starts. So I have posted up the thread for the 2017 challenge HERE.

Good luck to all those that enter and hopefully see some of you on the road.

Whatever gave you that idea?

As Simon always used to say. A ride needs a good ending.

He did indeed. I like the beginning and middle to be good too though!

I should get my last 2016 ride done tomorrow.

Good luck. It's very frosty this morning here. Hope more favourable conditions for you for tomorrow.

After two unseasonably dry days when I couldn't go out, I did my final ride in the rain today. It started to clear up at about mile 70 but that just meant when the construction lorries sprayed me with liquid mud there was no rain to wash it off.

But - all done! And teh tarik, curry puffs, and char siu rice make great mid-ride snacks. Beer at £10/pint discourages unhealthy options

Will upload a ride report when I've finished drying out :-)

 

[ianrauk]

Well done @tatr .

Can you update the challenge thread with both your November and December rides. I have had the thread unpinned so save you looking for it, it's HERE

And for your efforts...

 

[tatr]

Update done. Thanks for running the challenge this year!

This year I rode 1,859 miles just on challenge rides, added 16 to my Eddington number, and really appreciated the excuse to get out of the house once a month :-)
