Dang, I'm gonna have to up the miles again!!! :p
Hee, nuthatch, now you know what it was like for me when I was 'captain' of team Amici Veloci for the Top Hat MS ride this past spring. I would keep raising the pledge goal, and next thing I knew, it was passed again - we had some very intrepid fundraisers on our team, no doubt about that. :cool:
We are getting so close that 100,000 mile mark. Come on everybody! Get out there and ride! This is exciting. I think we should set the goal at 150,000 for next year. We can do it!
I personally am so excited to tell everyone I know, "Oh yes, I'm on a team with Cat Berge." ;)
I joined today and am in the process of logging all my miles. It may take me a few days to get them entered. Hope everyone had a relaxing turkey day!
i've actually considered moving my miles form my current club to TE.... i don't post over at the other forum anymore... so why should i be a member? but part of me feels guilty (i have a lot of that lately) for moving them since i was with them for so long.....
this is definitely a friendly and nicer bunch of people (there are a few exceptions... like BC68 and her brother post at the other forum and are great folks!!!! but there are so many rude, obnoxious people at the other forum... i had to leave!)
Upped our goal to 125,000 by Dec. 31 - think we can make it? Come on, all you club members in fair weather states!! Wait. Are their any members in Hawaii? I think the weather's crazy everywhere else!! :p
I've just joined bike journal but don't know how to add my distance: 11,608.92km/7,255.575miles. Anyone help?
Well, Yasmin, you've got me rubbing my administrative hands together and chuckling!!
Just log in and on the top navigation bar, pull down the "journal" heading to "add a ride." Your entry will be a bulk entry, so check that box. You can pick today's date as your ride date or any arbitrary date, I suppose. You'll probably also have to guess an average speed for your miles.
Welcome to the team/club!!! :D
wooooohoooo Yasmin!!! 7200+ miles??......you be the woman my friend!!!
Thanks Corsair & Nuthatch. I'm pleased to report that the miles have been entered appropriately.
Now, if only I could recover from this nasty virus so I could keep the odometer turning! Wanted to put an "eek" face here but am still computer illiterate.
PS - I'm even gonna put my team as TE seeing as I'm allowed to. My team in Australia wouldn't be recognised...so here goes.
(A coule of minutes have passed....).
Cool. Done!!!
Good. I"m glad someone helped you. I would have, but I knew you would knock me down on the list - wasn't too anxious to lose my standings. After seeing Cat's mileage, I knew that I was heading further and further down the list!
Sorry PW-seems a bit rude me barging in like that.
So as you all know it's me, my nick name on BikeJournal is "petitepower". The other user names I tried had been taken.
No worries! My standings are about to take a serious downturn - lots of off-bike nonsense going on that's seriously going to affect my mileage. Glad to have you aboard, though! The friendly competition really is fun and inspiring.

Corsair "I am NOT competitive.....am not, am not, am not" Mac ;)
Yasmin: post a reply and look over to the right hand side of the reply box - you should see some cute little faces with various and sundry expressions. Just click on the face you want and it'll put it where ever your cursor is in the reply box.
Here's an "eek" face for you my friend: :eek:
Corsairmac: Thanks for the tutorial about the faces. I'm learning. :)
...So the rude voices in my head were you, were they Corsair. Now I know it'll save me a trip to the shrink :D
Pedalwench: Don't worry honey...the way this virus is going you may get in front of me sooner than you think! :eek:
