Well, it was very windy here today, but dry, and lots of rain is forecast for the next week so I took my chance and completed the 2015 challenge this afternoon.
It has certainly encouraged me to do longer rides but some of you are putting in efforts which remind me that I could be trying harder!
I have been toying with the idea of having a go at the imperial century, metric century and half metric century challenges in parallel next year to mark turning 60 - a 'there is life in the old dog yet' endeavour!
I don't want to set myself up for failure though, so I will start with an easier goal of one metric OR imperial OR double metric century PLUS one metric century PLUS one half metric OR half imperial century a month. If I do manage to get early-season imperials done, then commit myself to imperials OR double metrics instead of metrics for alternative long ride each month for the rest of the year. I would be pretty happy with (say) 18+*100 km, 4*100 miles, 2*200 km PLUS 12+*50 km.
Now watch me catch a really nasty flu bug early in January which scuppers the whole lot before I even get started!
