The National Bike Challenge is on!

[rcannon100]

I am asking. I am reading. I am not figuring out.

In total, team Federal Cyclists Commission is over 300 points. But as far as I can tell, only my points are showing up on the Leaderboard. Does anyone have any clue what could be wrong.

I set up the team. The members joined because I invited them through the software. The team is set for the national challenge. Multiple members have logged miles in June.

Have looked on the site. Have asked on their social network part. Have asked support.

Thank you if you have a clue (and even for the clueless)

I just looked you up; you have 611 points now, which is reflected on the National Leaderboard and you are in 67th place. On the Communities leaderboard, it looks like you have fewer points. This would be due to team members not entering their zip codes when they registered or entering a zip code outside of our “community.” We have this issue with my team — a couple of members live outside the immediate area and their miles don’t count toward our standings on the Communities leaderboard (even so, we are in fifth place in DC-NoVa-MD).

As of this moment, all 3 BikeArlington teams are in the top 20! 😎

My goal now is to beat the “Riders Against Bike Lanes” team. The infrastructure advocates must beat the VCs!

I like bike infrastructure but I think I’ve had more close calls in bike lanes than going through Georgetown on M St when I take the lane. That could be anecdotal though.

OH!!!!!!!!!! Huh! Thank you!

Yup – that was it. BUT That is absolutely STUPID. We are commuting TO the same place (I assume). WDC. But bc some are coming from Rockville, some are coming from Arl Alex. Some are coming from Silver Spring, our local score is different. This is dumb dumb dumb.

I think someone is going to have to crow bar this thing. Identify the local teams, and then do a weekly score card or something.

Thanks. Yes, now I understand – although it still doesnt make sense.

LETS GO CAPS

[rcannon100]

* Bike Arlington C 1418
* Bike Arlington B Team 1182 p
* BikeArlington 979 p.
* Bike Club, Yo! 933 p
* Federal Cyclists Commission 760 p
* Fairfax Advocates for Better Bicycling 599 p
* Silver Cycles Night Riders – Silver Spring, MD 456 p.
* U.S. Department of Transportation 449 p.
* Farm and Rural Bicyclist Branch 363 p.

If there are other local Greatr WDC, post them and we will get a better sense of our competition. I know I overlooked IDA (what is IDA??)

My company’s team is Team Finra. We have 660 points on the National Leaderboard and 627 points on the Local Leaderboard (due to one member with points being outside the area, as the competition defines it). At the moment, we are in sixth place locally.

I realize too late that this is a competition not just for miles of cycling, but for most obsessively-compulsively logging miles of cycling. I know I saw at least one of my teammates coming in from commuting in to work this week, but she still has zero showing. To the best organized go the spoils!

I just put up a 65 mile RT to B’more for the C team. What a great ride! Learned an excellent route (hint TJROW…)

However, I know that one of my colleagues from work is in vacation and hasn’t posted her rides for the B team, so I expect that will boost the B’s totals a lot when she gets back.

PS Dana (dbb) sighting at the Kinetic Sculpture race (but I don’t have photographic evidence). The 1% floated (lots of pictures coming I’m sure)!

And I just did 55 miles up and around Poolesville…sounds like C is finishing strong this week!

I will stipulate to the fact I was indeed at the races. Saw a spectator riding a bike unlike anything even Dirt has ever considered. A fat tire fixie, except it was a very large trike and the “tires” were steel, if only 16 gauge.

There were people with waay too much free time!

Try this link. I thought the route worked out great. No traffic, decent enough road surfaces until Baltimore City, very nice roads most of the way. http://g.co/maps/yx467

Happy birthday JustinW – your team is in 4th place nationally this morning!

Wow, could someone actually pedal that thing?
