Hey, we only have to log another 5,106 miles to pass "The Rapid Wheelmen" and get into the top 10 clubs on www.bikejournal.com
Team Estrogen is #11 at the moment.
Let's go! Every mile counts! Yay Team Estrogen! (I was NEVER a cheeleader, can you tell? :D )
I just logged my 18 mile coffee-cruise. I had a short latte and a big mouthful of Clif Snot. mmmmm. It was the longest ride so far on my new Speedplay Frogs. Everyone was right, clipless is so much easier than I expected!
ok, I just updated my mileage...thanks for reminding me because I forget to do it
Me too! (a paltry 142 miles, but every bit helps, right?)
OK! OK! I signed up and added all my miles. I wish they had a category for "City hybrid bike". I don't like that my Larkspur falls under "comfort". She's a tough, fast, hard working bike. :mad: Well, you guys know that. :rolleyes: Fun to be logging my miles with the rest of you.
Latte and Cliff Shot. chocolate? That's a tasty snack. L.
I signed up and logged a few yesterday but hopefully will have many more to come! :D
I have a ride to log in- 15 miles from yesterday. I'll have another one for tomorrow - hmmm 65-88 miles. Not sure yet what distance I'll be going! (See the Mines Rd thread in California and you'll know why!:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: )
If I sign up for Bike Journal, will it let me log in miles retroactively, for miles since January 1, for instance? None of the screens I visited indicated whether or not I could do that...
Oh, yeah, you can either log them as "bulk miles", or put them in for each date. It won't let you put them in for the future, though, as I discovered when I tried to enter May 4 as May 14. :cool: L.Quote:

I really need to find someone to watch the kids on Friday because I've decided I need to ride 30 miles on my 30th birthday. :D
Brandy- Yes do your birthday ride- 30 miles? Good for you!:) :) :) :)
Wow, neat idea. Ride your age every year on your birthday!
PS: Hey....wait a minute, my birthday's in January :-( Maybe I would have to go somewhere WARM every January for my ride! An excellent solution! ;-)
I think you can. Just put the date in the section where it asks for it on the "add a ride" page.Quote:

Great, thanks!
OK, women, here's another question. I'm very new to the TE boards. Should I log in my miles only since joining TE, or since January 1st? Yes, I really am this geeky to ask about this. Almost seems like an ethical question if we're competing against other teams. Wanna be a clean team! ;-)
OK. I've added my 43 miles. Now I'll have to get my bike assembled so I can go out and ride some more. ;)
(I'd add some for all those hours in spin class, but wouldn't know how to guesstimate them, and then too ... what're the ethics of that?)
sorry, I know she has over 2k in this year :D
T~
I'm already with another club on Bikejournal. I have also joined TE on BJ today. I don't see how to add my bulk miles to TE, however. I see that you can move your miles, but I don't want to do that because I want to keep my miles with my other club, too.
Any suggestions? I have nearly 800 miles this year so far. I had planned to do a 50-miler today, but got caught up working in my garden and just could not stop! The bulk of my miles come from my 28-mile round-trip commute.
Okay, it's late...I'm not dumb. I figured it out. I'm #20! (under a different name, alas) Yip!
added mine too.....
Looks like we'reup to number nine.... I rode in the 49 degree rain today and I'm still trying to figure out when it's going to be uncomfortable. Maybe it's just the Xtracycle but it was still fun! I have to drive the car some tomorrow 'cause I'm cat-sitting an elderly feline who needs many trips to the vet http://www.resourceroom.net/pcc/images/PeaceSmile.gif
.... and I got a camera for my birthday! (this isn't from it, though). Soon as I figure it out...
I added my 21 miles to the total. Only 429 more until I meet my goal :rolleyes:
A few of my coworkers and I are thinking about forming our own team as a lark: The Redshirts. But not many people understand the Star Trek reference :p
Starfish: the choice is yours my friend. I didn't know about TE or BJ when I first started riding but I added the bulk miles just as soon as I found out. We'll take whatever miles we can get!!
and Geek: ROFLMAO about the Red Shirts.....oh yes - you will find quite a few Tek-Heads on this board. My only question: when the Red Shirts go for a ride, how ya'll gonna pick which one doesn't come back?.....I mean since ya'll will be a Red Shirt? :p
I guess we figure there's more safety in numbers.... and since we're not taking any command-level officers with us, we're probably safer than most of our counterparts :D
Of course, we've all accepted that we're expendable, so I guess we'll just draw straws if it comes to it :p
I added all my miles last night! I didn't know if I should add from the beginning of the year (as Starfish asked), but I did. Glad too see we made it to the top 10. :D
I love the name -- but I'm not sure I'd like the fate of being a Redshirt. Maybe you have a promotion after X miles and get a blue or a yellow shirt, or more notches on your collar ;)Quote:

#9 eh? I never look at our stats! But, I've got some more miles to add too as soon as I figure out elevation gain on one ride and MPH on the other. So that means we'll have 81 mores miles from me!:p :p :p :p :p
GO TEAM ESTROGEN!!!!!!!!!!
OK, I just transferred my 1443 from the Bike Friday club, and we are at EIGHT:D . I hope my BF friends don't kill me, but given my BF was stolen maybe its time for me to move on.........
I just transferred mine over as well...
Primary! DRINK!
(oh, I haven't played "Bar Trek" in soooooooo long!):D
Hooray Team Estrogen! Number 8 already. Soon we shall be #1 and we shall... rule the world!
I just transferred all of mine over from GABA. I've only ridden with GABA twice, so I don't feel TOO bad....
OK, I have transferred my paltry 450 miles over! Go TE!
I just signed up and posted my sad 313 miles. But, hey, I have 3 small children!
OK...logged all my road miles since January 1!Quote:

Let's make it a goal to get and stay in the top five, then our name will be on the home page. Anyone who hasn't been logging on BJ can start now and enter their year to date mileage as a bulk entry.
somebody IM Caligurl and bikerchick68 and tell 'em to add TE to their teams... I've already pestered them enough ;)
or the nubile alien?? hmmmmm - where do I sign up??Quote:

I've signed up too. Only 45km so far, but that was testing my beautiful new bike:) . I'm sure I'll do a lot more this summer.
