Those of you on Strava would have noticed that the Rapha Festive 500 Challenge has been released. Ride 500km's in 8 days between the 24th December and 31st December to work off those mince pies and earn a woven badge in the process.

I thought I would create a post to allow people to post the rides they are doing.

I am away Christmas Eve and Christmas but will be back with a vengeance on Boxing Day and am already thinking the 3 (or 4) Gorges as my Ironman training kicks off.

Good idea Jo!
I just joined the challenge, finished it last year.
Great time to ride, traffic quiet, weather hopefully great and a belly full of fuel.
I won't commit yet but intend to ride xmas eve, xmas day, away boxing day to the 28th then every day til the new year.
A good ride New Years Day is a great way to celebrate!
Have a great ride,
Peter

as per the newsletter, you may want to rename this thread to something about riding over the holidays ... lots of members aren't on Strava and don't give a fig about the 'festive 500'

Jo and I will be doing 5 Hills on new years day - probably leave at about 7:00am from our place. It was so quite this year - only problem was the amount of glass on the rd around Bondi & the occasional drunk.

Hi Mike, tempting but I'll not have my bike with me, and the family
would kill me if I took off during "family" time. I'll just have to train hard when I get back. I'm only away for a week so I should be still in form for the alpine classic. Well as close to form as I'm likely to get. Have a great time in NZ.

@Anna - My New Years day ride will follow the MC 5 Hills route, which is similar to the DHBC Tue ride, but different. Leaves from our place at 7:00am, goes via back of Newtown / Erko and Waterloo to CP and then Bronte, Bondi, Watsons, Rose Bay, etc. Riders welcome to join at any point along the way. Bring two tubes, there was masses of glass this year :-)

Here's where we'll be going >> http://app.strava.com/activities/53168616 - only difference is we exit CP at the York Rd gates, go right down York rd and then left and up Darley Rd past Queens Park.

By the way, 3 Gorges is still on come the *admin edit* 26th. However, it has occurred to me I haven't been on a bike in 2 weeks prior so I MAY catch a train from Hornsby to get home after the Gorges.

Good point. We'll leave it to RNP then. I haven't done either of them before, so keen either way.

Ha ha Colin, I know you're really faster than you say. :-)

I've found a coffee shop that's open and it's my local and it's good! Beejays in Illawarra Road on the Cooks River side of the station is open 7-12.

We'll head there after La Pa.

After stacking it spectacularly this morning, please don't count me in for any ride this week. Boo. But thanks to the top group this morning for your help. Just lost lots of skin and am a bit sore and stiff. Bike is ok!

Bit disappointed that the car I fell in front of didn't stop and drove around me.

I've been told off for riding on Christmas Day. I have to make it up by spending time with the family, so I'm pulling out of all rides over the holiday period. Enjoy and see you all in the new year.

Best regards,

For those riding tomorrow, I think that we will take a vote on the morning for where to ride. I'm flexible but need to make it hard for myself so hills are a must. Personally i'd like to hit The Wall and think that Audley In > Wall > Return Via Helensburg is the go. I do need to make some km's up (2 days off this weekend) so may tack on some more for those keen for punishment. We can discuss en-route....

Audley > Bald Hill and back through the park is also not so bad an idea....

Is the Wednesday LaPa ride happening on New Years Day or only the EB 5 Hills ride?
Colin, I'm in Mudgee but I reckon it will happen and especially so if people just turn up!

I may not make the Hills ride tomorrow. Suffering from my wounds today as I took the coverings off. Don't fall off your bike peeps. Hopefully someone is going who knows the way.

I am working NYE so I'll see how I go for turning up for LaPa. I won't be in any position to smash anyone against anything

Great ride this morning and I learned something. My mid-week early morning route to CP that works well for one rider is no good for a bunch :-)

It had struck me as an exotic way to get to Centennial Park. Strava had me as all time 9th on Belmont Lane, which shows it's not a common bike route. Most of the others on Strava's list were in today's pack.
