The 2026 Half Century (50km or 50 mile) a month challenge chatzone

[gbs]

Last year I completed the challenge but failed to meet my personal target of 50 qualifying rides in the year. This year a better story; the 50x50km target has been met, despite aging like every one else (at my age another year) is significant and strugglling with pneumonia for 3 weeks over the Easter period. Many thanks to 13 Rider for setting this challenge.

"plods" is the right word. I rarely achieve 20kph moving average even in the flatlands of the Thames Valley
