4th September: 50.04 miles - A relaxed ride to visit a tiny hamlet in the middle of nowhere, or at least it was until I turned around and realised I'd had a tailwind for the last 25 miles and now had to ride straight back in to it! - https://www.strava.com/activities/5904349100 - 2 points
12th September: 32.83 miles - A lazy morning meant I didn't have time to do the full route I'd planned for today, so settled for an undulating but not hilly 50k in the Chilterns instead - https://www.strava.com/activities/5948322577 - 1 point
18th September: 73.17 miles - Surprisingly warm ride to, through, round and back from Oxford. Ample opportunities to use cyclepaths to avoid main roads, all gratefully taken - https://www.strava.com/activities/5980265108 - 3 points

Total so far: 73 points

Jan-Aug 9 points.

September 1 point, total 10!

I thought I might not manage a September 50k, but Mrs SnG said, “Take my car for MOT/service, I’ll have a relaxing morning, you go and get your 50k cycle.”
😂
So I did!
Chichester, Boxgrove, Aldingbourne, Westergate, Fontwell, Walberton, Yapton, Ford, Tillington, Arundel, Nyton, Aldingbourne Boxgrove, Westerton, Chichester.
All is good (for now!).
