Guys, last weekend for June.
Hopefully you have already done or will be doing June's qualifying ride.

(Sagefly will be out with me on Sunday so hopefully, that will be your ride if not already done)

Not uploaded it yet but I done my first June ton at the start of the month.

@tallliman PLEASE can you add a short description of your rides when you post them as per the first post above. A list of Strava links is pretty dull reading.

Should this be in the metric century chatzone ?

 

[ianrauk]

And with @sagefly 's ride qualifying ride today done and dusted.
That makes 14 riders still in the challenge.

Next week is a new month.. keep those pedals turning chaps.

July's done again completed in the company of @Supersuperleeds and @tallliman . Ride to Market Harborough to meet a couple of other Ccers @PeteXXX and @The Bystander . 20 mile loop with @PeteXXX then back to Leicester via Lutterworth . 101 miles for me

 

[Supersuperleeds]

as @13 rider says above, July done, cracking loop by @PeteXXX and nice to also meet @The Bystander. @tallliman you've now done 7 months, time to get your hat in the ring

131 miles for me putting this ride as my 4th longest and 6th biggest mileage day (not that I keep records or anything )

 

[tallliman]

If I can get to 8, the hat may appear in the ring!

Thats July's done, the credit for the route goes down to my mate. The Sustrans tunnels were an experience but on the whole it was a great route, according to Strava I lost 0.6miles in the two of them, I am glad that all I lost though I even remembered how to cycle the last 18miles home after the pub, with a deliberate diversion to make it 200k

You rode some off the same roads as us today we stopped at Waterloo farm just off the Brampton way and rode to Harborough from Leicester via Glooston ( bit lumpy ) and Great Bowden

The roads were packed with cyclists today

July's qualifier done.109 miles of great Shropshire, Powys and Herefordshire scenery.

A fab ride but hard work towards the end. Write up to follow tomorrow.

Edit: write up done and it's here

July done. Another European epic on Fridays Tour 'rest day', solo this time- starting from my digs at Eijsden (south of Maastricht), a 25 mile loop into Belgium and back before breakfast (set off 5.49, returned 8.15). After many calories, out east to Aachen then Kelmis, shortly afterwards being drenched in an apocalyptic thunderstorm. Strongly considered bailing for a train- 66 or so miles done- but it dried up and I dried out, apart from my feet. Back west and many bits of extra mileage later, including a return to Belgium, back to Eijsden on 100.4 miles at 6.45 or so. Will update the list at some point. A hard day, but a rewarding one.
