"Eddington Number"

[Aravis]

My GPS-verified Eddington is now 88. My first uploaded ride was February 24th 2016, so if I can get to 100 by November 18th (I think) I'll have done it in under 1000 days. I'm a little behind schedule but early September should give me a chance to catch up.

For the "classic" Eddington, which includes my old paper records, I need 4 more for 117. I think the limit is going to be 120, possibly 121, before I'm done. For the GPS-veridied version, 110 or 111. In the end I'll probably regard that one as the more significant. There could be a good argument for not trying to get there too soon.

Massive Kudos for anyone who gets over an imperial Eddington of over 100 I've done many century rides, but nowhere near 100, if I get my Eddington to 100 I'll be a very happy man, but I've done very few rides much over 100, so to get beyond that is going to take a massive effort, so I reckon if & when I get to 100 I won't be chasing any more, maybe .....

Well done Aravis & all others who are at 100+

Up to 65 after today's ride so 7 rides over 65 miles in less than 2 months . 7 more again to 66 required

Another 2 months and 7 rides over 66 gives me a new Eddington of 66 . 5 more for 67 should be done by October hoping for 68 by Xmas

I need 4 x 73 miles for E73, 7 x 74 miles for E74, and 10 x 75 miles for E75. I'll try to avoid doing too many 76-99 mile rides because it will take me the rest of my life to achieve E100 if I do! I need another 58 x 100+ miles but only did 7 such rides last year. At that rate it would take me another 8+ years and I am rapidly heading towards 63 years of age. I'd like to think that I will still be riding centuries in my 70s but I'd prefer to achieve my goal before my 60s are over!

E73 achieved, now 2 x 74 miles needed for E74, 5 x 75 miles for E75, 7 x 76 miles for E76, and still 54 x 100+ miles for my lifetime target of E100 (mostly on hilly routes).

Got mine up to 57 today. Should be 60 by the end of the year.

New Eddington today 67 need 5 more for 68 not many more for 70 when it will get harder. I a lot of rides 64 to 70 for metric centuries but not many rides over 70 which haven't been converted to imperial tons but only at 36 of those so progress my slow

I'm still on track to make mine 50 my the end of the year, only 9 more 50 milers to go. The challenge rides will take care of 7 of them, so just have to find the tie to get 2 in somehow....

Moved my single ride Eddington up to 102 today, true Eddington is still at 104.

 

[13 rider]

Got my Eddington up to 100 today
Metric though

 

[13 rider]

New Eddington today 68 , 4 more for 69 ,9 to 70 maybe possible before the year end

 

[cosmicbike]

October metric century done today, and an increase in my imperial Eddington from 45 to 46. Another 6 rides above 50 miles will see it to 50, my target by the end of 2018

Got my Eddington up to 100 today
Metric though

Just noticed my metric is now at 101, missed it reaching the magic 100. Imperial only at 74 though & need 3 rides of 77 miles to increase it, so not sure that will happen this year

 

[Supersuperleeds]

Single ride Eddington now 103, one more ride needed to get the true Eddington to 105. Metric version now 153

 

[13 rider]

Upto 69 after today's ride . 4 more over 70 for next one

 

[Supersuperleeds]

True Eddington up another one to 105, 15 more to get to 106, it's now starting to get really hard
