The 2025 Half Century (50km or 50 mile) Challenge Chatzone.

Metric bit done Just need a 50 miler to complete my challenge.

I've given up looking at weather forecasts, or I'd never go anywhere It rained a bit today and was quite windy, but not enough to make it too hard work.

Nice going ! Well done 😉

Well done.

Doing at least one of each sounds like an interesting variation, though the 50 milers are each only 45-60 minutes short of metric centuries... March to November it would be tempting to add the extra, but less so in the winter!

Well done @geocycle finisher no11 , shame the weather thwarted a metric century attempt

That’s me done! I headed off for a 100 km, contemplated a 50 mile but had to make do with 66 km before the rain set in hard again. I’ll try and get a 50 mile done for this challenge later n the month but at least the 50 km is in the bank. I’m sorry @13 rider that this 66 km has left me on 66 points in this challenge and 99 points overall, don’t worry I will get out again soon!

A short weather window has opened up in the middle of next week: Wed/Thurs

Pressure climbs before falling back again on Friday. Perhaps a bit of morning fog to contend with - but it should be dry and not windy.

Don't know if that fits with your work commitments @sevenfourate ?

Thankyou for this !

I’m stupendously busy up until finishing for Christmas on the 23rd. So no chance of a 1/2 day / late start etc. But may well get in a silly early ride on Wed or Thurs to get the job done - especially with this weekend being a washout…...

If conditions over the Holidays play ball. I can hopefully then add to my tally at my own leisure, at my own pace 😁

It will if you type it in yourself rather than using the pop-up list, which has been unreliable for months...
