Welcome aboard John. Hopefully I've done enough to keep that 10th spot! If you've been consistent from the start of the year I think I might be in trouble.

I'm gradually adding this year's rides from Strava, so you'll see my distance increase a fair bit over the next few days - I hope that's alright with everybody.
Ooh so is mine! That'll put you in the 10 - 14th log jam. This is where the real competition is at!

Been doing some extra kms on the commute to round out this months Strava MTS - caused a possibly brief guest appearance back the coveted 10th spot!

First commute today in almost 4 weeks. Hoping the body has healed enough to continue doing back to back days.

Used the bike today to get early to Sydney Olympic Park to claim a shelter for a family BBQ/Party then left late also. Otherwise it would have been PT in use (not fun).
Drank coffee in the claimed shelter whilst waiting, was quite pleasant

As I keep saying, I have to get to work somehow.

I'd really prefer an elevation commuting challenge :mrgreen:

Mate great work you are quickly getting to the out of reach place for me.

Back into it again this week hope for lots more kms as kiso is close behind - welcome Kiso for now (just as long as you stay south of me)
Not fast, no style, but still get there.

Hi westab, my aim in joining this challenge is to force myself to ride to work every day (instead of 3-4 days/week as I have been doing), so could end up catching you! Watch out!

I think I may have an unfair advantage in that one. if i get a chance, i'll do some maths

from what i can see, commuting last year gave me 171846m of climbing (out of 203k)

I seem to have held 9th despite the holiday. Bloody miracle I reckon. Now, riding every day until the end of the year, see if I can move up a place or two ;)

Nope, summer holiday. Nice to miss July in Melbourne, especially this year. But now I'm back, it's all back to the normal which is about 190KMs a week.

See Ya ;)
