cat-i Posted May 11, 2018 Author Posted May 11, 2018 For me it is a DNF. Won't make the climbs in the remaining time. Had some bad luck during the week that cut a few rides short. Will give it a go next year again. It will always be one heck of a challange for me as I will have the handicap of a public holiday every year. This leaves me with 4 days to do it all. It equates to 849m climbing per day and 66 km per day. Distance is not a challange at all but the climbing. Go find a parkrun on top of a hill tomorrow! Or maybe there's a shop on top of a hill where you can go buy some bread?

Bateleur1 Posted May 11, 2018 Posted May 11, 2018 Go find a parkrun on top of a hill tomorrow! Or maybe there's a shop on top of a hill where you can go buy some bread? Would love to but with a 1671m of climbing still to go, time is agains me. Sorry
cat-i Posted May 11, 2018 Author Posted May 11, 2018 Gotta say this challenge has been deceptively difficult. Deceptively difficult - that's my word for the day. Good luck with your afternoon ride and parkrun. Will be watching the logs tonight and tomorrow.
Imploder Posted May 11, 2018 Posted May 11, 2018 Deceptively difficult - that's my word for the day. Good luck with your afternoon ride and parkrun. Will be watching the logs tonight and tomorrow. Thanks Cat-i. Enjoyed the Sunset on my last weekday Sani2C challenge ride. Hopefully I make it out tomorrow morning. @Bats my total climbing for the week - 4082m I can borrow you some climbing meters....

Nancy Drew Posted May 17, 2018 Posted May 17, 2018 My sincerest and humblest apologies to the top 3 that are still standing on the podium awaiting their prizes. This week has not gone according to plan. However, I hope to remedy that and have a firm date with my oven on Saturday. Thank you for your patience! Next year I'll make sure the prizes are ready for prize giving straight after the challenge
