Starting Saturday 13 October and continuing until 11th November a cycle distance challenge is running for anyone who uses the Strava website.
We’ll track the total distance travelled over the 4 weeks of the challenge for everyone in who belongs to the virtial “BikeManawatu Club” on Strava.com.
There are a number of online web sites where people are tracking their rides, comparing distance travelled with their mates and generally having a bit of fun at the same time. The popular one at the moment is Strava.com. The introductory level of membership is free to use and the challenge costs nothing to participate.
