Be Sure To Sign Up For The TE Team On BJ!

I'd love to log my trainer rides, but I'm not sure how to track mileage.

How do you track indoor mileage when you don't have your distance sensor hooked up to your back wheel?

Do you just estimate based on your average outdoor time/mileage?

Also, I'd love to give TE my skiing kilometers, but I'm not sure if that's allowed

i have my sensor on my back wheel. That's the only way I can tell how far i've gone. What i have discovered is that i am horribly consistent. No matter how hard i work, it seems to stay around 12mph on the trainer.

I noticed that when I post my rides at BJ that only my actual outdoor rides tally. My stationary bike rides and mileage do not. Can your indoor mileage get added some how? Or only outdoor mileage?

Thanks . . . Sue

Susan, you have to find the place on BJ where it says to count all miles.
you just have to uncheck something, but i don't remember exactly how to do it.

In your profile, there is a flag that indicates, "count outside rides only". Uncheck that flag and you should be good to go...(speaking from experience)

[Dianyla]

Hmmm, good idea, but how do you do that on BJ?

I had to reread this three times before I figured out what you were really trying to say.


It's just way too early in the morning and besides I have the sense of humor of a 12 year old boy.

Hey hey hey . . . it worked! Now my indoor/gym/stationary rides are counted! Thanks!

Get outa here with yer wild self!
I've occasionally thought the same thing (probably) when I see the abbreviation "BJ."

OK, I signed up and posted last weekend's rides.
I'll look at last week's schedule and post-enter those rides later. Should be good for another 50-75 miles.

How do I see my ride tallies for all the clubs? How do we know that they show up for all three, and not just the primary club?

urk. What am I doing wrong??

I go to www.bikejournal.com, my username and password are there already and I click "log in". Then I go to "view forum" - click on the 2005 mile race thread - and click on the link in mrprudhoms first post to see the updated results.

THEN I'm told I'm timed out and am asked to log in again??

Oh, and can I join another race, like the "shoot Cupid" 400 mile one too?

feeling stupid here, finally found my way around TE and now I'm all lost agin...

I think the time out is a bug that Sean aka Slantz is working on.
You can join as many races as you want to...

[Geonz]

Yea, join, join

Most of us have set our "goal" thing to 400, too, which has caused confusion in the masses (since we're pretty obviously on a pace to do more than 400 in the year).

Whether you join the inane banter (see the "Okay, you two" thread) is entirely optional.

[lph]

cool I have my hands full keeping up with just a little of the inane banter on TE, I think

um - HOW do I join the Cupid thingy race?

-signed, dumb in Oslo

[Geonz]

Welp, if you wandered into the vortex of the inanity thread, you'd find that signing up isn't that easy to find

This will probably work: look along the top for the menu and find "rides" (after home journal riders .... etc...) and click on "manage rides." That pulls up some rides - for me, it pulled up the ones in my state. There's a box up in the right hand corner that says "what state" and I changed it to "all."

Then the first ride was the "Valentine's Day/ Shoot Cupid" ride and I clicked and joined. There's supposed to be (virtual) fudge for everybody who finishes

[lph]

Got it! I joined via your profile page

Feeling very newbie though among all them yellow jerseys...

ooh fudge, i like fudge.
