    Or! You could just go out and climb so effing hard and long that you wouldn’t even have to make excuses for your bicycle computer.

    J.C. W could easily, and rather stealthily, run away with this thing. By the time he hits 30K feet he’ll probably have it if he keeps at his current pace.

    In the spirit of the competition, I’m always looking for rollers. What goes down must go back up type routes!

    I’m with you!! I love the “what goes down, must go up” routes. It keeps things lively. Going uphill for 15 miles and then down for 15 miles isn’t quite the same.

    Oh my! Going hard and long just sounds so wrong for a family forum. ;)

    Agreed! Much better to talk about going up and down.

    Team leaderboard is already there from a prior prize, it’s just not listed in the menu. See the billy goat leaderboard.

    I can do an individual leaderboard at some point.

    Have we reached “some point”?

    We’re accepting pull requests. Hit us up on freezingsaddles-dev@googlegroups.com to find out how to contribute.

    … But, in case you were just nagging and not volunteering to help, rest assured that this is on the list; I planned to do this (and other easy tickets) next time I have cycles for FS work if Jon doesn’t get to it first.

    Oh, I was definitely just nagging, but in the most passive-aggressive way I could think of. Tbh, I would gladly pull on this, but I am not actually qualified to help. With anything, but certainly not with coding.

    Leaderboard is created: https://freezingsaddles.org/pointless/billygoat-indiv

    I guess the winner sometimes is someone that hardly does anything at all. :-)

    Agreed. Thanks for doing that.

    And Brad G. I’d like to officially curse you .. er.. I mean thank you for keeping the pressure on. You are obviously a natural climber, I am more of a natural descender!
