Welcome to the home of bicycle addiction, a coalition of likeminded individuals addicted to riding bicycles as much as humanly possible. The goal here is to ride your bicycle for 100 days in a year (or more) so that the hunger can be quenched. All are welcome, and discussion is encouraged, but NO HATERS.
So the rules from last year had to be updated a bit, but for the most part stay unchanged, here is the 2013 version:
The rules are as follows:
- Can be any type of riding (DH, AM, XC, DJ, Road) - 45 minutes to an hour minimum constitutes a ride - A day of trail building can count as riding - You should come back and post, pictures would be even better. - Dont lose count. - NO TIME TRAVEL IT DOES NOT COUNT.
0-25 You didn't even try!! 25-100 You could do better!!! 100-200 You're commited!!! 200-250 Hard core 250-300+ King of pinkbike!!
Welcome everyone, my year is over today as snow is on the ground, and I am hanging up the bike and grabbing the board. I reached 105 days this year!! pretty fired up.
how did you all do?
to those still riding, are you snow riding? or are you fortunate to live in warm december climates?
I'll get in on this! Last year wasn't too bad, had to have gotten close to 100, but things were pretty busy! Winters been pretty mild around here so Ive still been sneaking in days here and there. The years pretty much over for me, tomorrow I'm heading for a christmas trip to the states with the fam, at least I'll have my DJ bike with me so I can keep sharp. This coming year's looking good though! Finally got the full stable I need, with more free time. Gonna try an hit the big mountains as much as possible!
I'm pretty excited about 2013, and totally know the feeling of school getting in the way, i was lucky to have a 4 ride a week summer - and am now having withdrawals as i can barely squeak in 2 a week... winter weather doesnt help!
124 days and counting. Looking at 130 for the year. There is no snow in town. But as of recently there is a couple of inches in the mountain, but that doesn't stop me. I did better then expected but poorer then what I would hope. My goal for next year is 200.
thats what I like to hear!! It's nice having a non competitive goal to motivate riding... although honestly I have ridden multiple days in the past without remembering to record
Want to get on this, my effort this year was pitiful. Need some sort of incentive to get out on the bike regardless of horrendous weather
With the lack of taglines nowadays, I hope pinkbike add in the feature where you can count how many days you got down for riding. It was suggested in the software upgrades thread a few weeks back.
what do you guys think about Strava? it seems like if you have a smartphone you can get more than enough info on your rides.
Strava is cool, but unless I'm training for a race I'm not overly concerned with how well my ride stacks up aganst others, as long as I had fun i'm satisfied!
