Why, what’s going on tomorrow?

[Rod Smith]

Can you do that?

[Jason B]

Just curious, did elevation count as points last year?

No, but there may have been a pointless prize for it.

One mile *is* a tiny bike ride, but it did get me on the bike for trips to the store when it was bbbrrrrrrr out. If I’d had to do a 3 mile loop to get a bottle of wine, I’m not sure I would have.

Srsly. The liquor store is really close to my apartment.

I don’t remember there being one, and elevation data is so variable between device and weather conditions anyway.

Arbitrary and capricious measurement just adds to the thrill of the competition.

Speaking of BAFS jerseys, is this something people would be interested in? Assuming costs were in the $50-60 range? I am not volunteering (yet), but if there were significant interest this is probably something to be considered. I can help with logistics, but would need help on the design front.

I can’t help with design, but I would buy one and I would be willing to donate the cost of an additional one as a prize (pointless or otherwise). Long sleeve?

On the subject of bonus points: How about bonuses for CaBi rides of greater than 5 miles (but only if the duration is under 30 minutes…)

For Freezing Saddles, I think a good winter jersey is in order.

I don’t know if I can handle freezing saddles, I think I was traumatized last year. And it is cold already.

Base miles + a reason to keep looking at more bike gear.
