    This year one of my riding

    This year one of my riding buddies organized a Metric Century Challenge a bunch of us local cyclists joined. We started with 11 guys and 2 women. Now we are down to 7 guys and the two women with a little over a month to go. January and February were tough months to do metrics. March wasn’t much better. April wasn’t too bad. It got easier after April.

    Most of the metrics I have done this year have been done solo. I was wondering how many of the participants in the Road CC competition ride solo mostly to do their metrics, and how many do the majority of their metrics with a riding buddy or in some sort of group ride?

    Thanks Dave, I guess that the comments would been re-posting so myself and a few others had already removed our old ones and started again!

    Thanks for the update.

    Need to sort out the edit

    Need to sort out the edit function so I can edit the metric Century challenge. Having just done mine I find it frustrating that its not possible to edit my own file, apparently I’m not authorized to do so. Come on guys the new dress looks good but there are problems unnderneath that should have been sorted by testing before the big move to ensure all the lights worked, then you wouldn’t get people moaning all the time, which is what has happened. Tme me thinks to get moving on the fingers to sort out the problems before people stop using the forum.

    Rather than break the rules…

    The 2015 MCC thread is now disabled for editing any older posts since you put your new dress on… Might be worth poking that developer of yours again so posts can be updated rather than having to create a new post.

    …you’re still welcome.

    I battled against the elements, month after month, racking up those dreaded kilometres. Every time telling myself it was for the greater good – that one day those socks would be mine. Every grimace, every face full of rain water, every set of aching legs, brought me closer to the socks.

    Finally, it was done, the challenge was complete, the socks were mine! I was so excited about the socks I rushed out and bought a bike in matching colours in anticipation. I cast out my other socks to the bin, obsolete compared to magnificent Road.cc socks.

    Alas, it wasn’t to be, that warmth in my heart has grown cold. The sweet taste of victory has turned to ashes in my mouth. All I can do now is forlornly gaze at my bike and dream of what might have been. Now the merest mention of socks engulfs me in a fit of rage.

    Ditto!

    Did Road.CC give up on the idea of socks for 2014 challenge completers? Or have I missed the memo?

    Will the 2015 challenge be pinned?
    Miraculously I am still in and managed two metrics in two months. My feet suffer terribly in the wet poor dears. Bring on the spring and completing one in the dry, daylight and under 4 hours and before the last day of the month!

    I’m enjoying racking ’em up so far this year. Hopefuly the weather will start to improve soon. That will make it a much nicer experience. B-)
