How is your Festive 500 going?

[flying]

I don't normally do these because this is always our extra heavy rains time
So far I'm happy to say I was only stormed out once on 2nd day

Anyway fingers crossed for weather to hold

How are your "festive 500"rides going?

[quickfeet]

We are on vacation over Xmas and in an area where riding outside is possible for the first time. I’ve been working for the last 5 days and am 215k deep. It’s gonna be some long trainer rides to when we get home to push it over the line but I’m super motivated to try and get it done.

I knocked out 160km the first day but found out they've done away with the physical patches and it's digital now. So my motivation has flagged and despite the warm temps completion is unlikely.

309km down - all indoors.. so my mileage may vary - but I’m happy w it.

Rain has ruined it, for the most part...at least that’s what I’m going to go with.

[marciero]

I'm out. Did it to years ago and it was more fun than I thought it would be. Had ideas of doing it this year late. Did not realize it started on the 24th, which was a beautiful day here where I could have ridden but did not. Then we had snow and I lost motivation.

I got one 19.4 mile ride...

Not epic.

You only need another 11.6 miles to get the Festive 50 award.

I've got umpty-squat things to do today, but I'm gonna try to get a ride in before the rain and catch you.

I need to retire.

Careful, I still have not left for work and could ride

I believe in you.

Maybe I'll just walk over to the Rapha store at lunch and spend $500 instead.

0 miles for me this year. Bummed to have missed it but happy to spend extra time with family.

Completely off the bike due to a knee injury. Bummed but the doc has cleared me to resume riding after the new year so very much looking forward to that
