2018 Marmotte Granfondo Alpes challenge is now completed.

Congratulations!

Ibooij, a (minor) feature that would be nice on the website is a coloured profile of the ride like in the simulator. The one on the website doesn't give much info, and if you want to look back on rides you have done (via the website) it would be nice to have the detailed profile displayed.

Thanks for the suggestion @martin22! I'll see what we can do.

Hi @ibooij thanks for updating the website. It makes looking at completed rides on the Challenges much easier to visualise, also noticed that you can now schedule directly from the page.

Regards

Credit for the web page work is not for me, I mostly work on the app itself. I'll forward your kind words!

Now we know who to blame for the pain and suffering

You can blame/praise (whichever is appropriate) yourself for taking up the challenge!

I have inflicted a lot of pain and suffering on myself using BRVR. You'd think that the pain and suffering on real climbs would then be lower, but as (I think) Greg Lemond used to say: "It never gets easier, you just get faster".

Well that didn't work. Decided to have a go at the Pyrénées challenge. Tried to do the Tourmalet (west side) and the legs just didn't want to go. I gave it 5km, hoping they'd wake up and trundle on, but nope. Not happening.

I don't have the time to do the challenge completely so I'll go back and catch up with the Goat league.

Oi! Don't blame me! It was @berty bassett who came up with the idea (I think), I just ran with it, It's Your/our league!!

It wasn’t me !! I’m only here for the beer
If I was to blame anyone it would be bobinski - but that’s just because I like blaming him for anything I can think of
