30 days of...

I've signed up for 30 days of biking for a laugh. I don't cycle every single day, unfortunately, and I think it'd be fun to try.
Apart from one day where I am at a hotel at a friend's wedding (hoping there's a gym) I can't see why I wouldn't be able to do it. My week of Nights should be slightly tricky, but I've done two this week of Nights. Won't be doing all seven mind!

I'm not normally great at sticking to things, but that's more like giving up things I like (at Lent. I've stopped bothering now) but this is fab as its an incentive to do more cycling!

Wondered if anyone had tried it before, and stuck to it?
Also if there's anything else we should choose to do every day for 30 days...

Sounds like a challenge! How far do you have to go to make it count?

I cycle five days out of seven, sometimes 6, and sometimes all 7, so I could do this.

I'm having trouble registering, it keeps saying it needs my location but when I click "find me" it says done.
Will try again later.

On the website it says:
"30 Days of Biking, whose fourth year begins April 1, has one rule: Bike somewhere every day for 30 days—around the block, 20 miles to work, whatever suits you—then share your adventures online. We advocate daily bicycling because we believe it enriches lives and preserves the Earth. A worldwide, thousands-strong community of joyful cyclists has been forming around that idea since April 2010—and will further amass in 2013! We ride our bikes every day."

So I guess the answer is round the block will count! On days where it can't be arsed to do my 30 mile round trip (not far for some but hilly enough to prevent me doing it every day!) I think a little pootle round town will suffice.

Excellent I was about to post some encouragement to have a go!
When it asked to find me it gave an imprecise location so I typed in my own home town and that worked...

Good luck!

I pledged!

I pledged also. I cycle everyday anyways so it should be quite easy. I was the only one from Ottawa a week ago, but I haven't checked back since.
