It’s getting to be that time of year; the leaves have changed, the days are shorter and colder. Soon we’ll hang up our cleats for the year and go into hibernation.
Wrong! It’s time once again for the CRW winter challenge!
This year we are competing in three categories: Distance, elevation, and time. The challenge will run December 1st through March 31st. Prizes will be awarded at an event at the Mighty Squirrel on Sunday, April 6th.
Aside from the winner of each category, we will have two raffle winners in each of the three categories as well, so we will have a total of 9 winners (prizes TBD).
To be entered into the raffle riders must reach minimums in any (or all) of the following categories:
- Distance: 400 miles
- Elevation: 15,000 feet
- Time: 40 hours
Riders can compete in as many of the categories as they wish, but they may only win one prize, either as the top rider of a category, or in a raffle.
Time/distance/elevation is entered manually by riders in their profile on the club website.
To enter your stats:
- Both real outdoor rides and virtual indoor rides are eligible to be counted.
- Log into the website.
- Click on your name at the top of the web page; this will open your profile.
- Click on Edit Profile, and scroll down until you come to your Activity Tracker.
- Enter your numbers here.
- Scroll down to the Save button and hit Save.
NOTE: Your totals will not update right away; give it a day or two.
Participation is limited to CRW members only. You may enter your numbers daily, weekly, or monthly. Monitor the leader board and see where you stand.
Good luck and keep on riding!
