    A warning –

    That person (not me)
    Was busy at work,

    No need to go there,
    For you’ll not find what you seek.
    If you go now,
    there’s nothing to cleek.

    Gladest it was foundest!

    In several cases, people seem to think that their team has eight members, when that is not the case. Please check https://freezingsaddles.org/leaderboard/team_text. If there are not eight members showing there, then someone’s miles are not being counted. Possible reasons are:

    1. The person did not join the team’s Strava club.
    2. The person has not ridden since January 1.
    3. The person did not go to https://freezingsaddles.org/authorize and authorize Freezing Saddles to read their miles. (Even if they think they did this, if they have done 1 and 2, they should try again.)
    4. The person has private rides, and did not select the second option at https://freezingsaddles.org/authorize, which allows Freezing Saddles to read private miles. (Again, even if they think they have done it, they should try again.)

    Until the person has successfully made it onto the leaderboard at https://freezingsaddles.org/leaderboard/team_text, their miles are not counting for your team. And if you don’t get this fixed quickly, chuxtr may not have anyone on the wait list to replace the missing players. So team captains (or indeed, any team member), please check this right away.

    The last I checked our team captain šŸ‘©*āœˆļø is MIA. I think we’re team 20, Eastside River Riders. Also, I’m not sure if all our members are actually members because I’m seeing them on Strava where someone could sneak onto a club (I’m still having problems with my phone and this site and I think Henry tired of my questions – still can’t find Pointless for instance). Maybe our AWOL captain has already been found?!

    When you get there you might have to hunt a bit. It’s behind the Metro Door of Perception.

    Calvinball has been acquired! (I request selfie bonus points) and has been rehidden where you should ride daily (but avoid the streetcar tracks!)[ATTACH=CONFIG]20876[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]20877[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]20878[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]20879[/ATTACH]

    I guess a fairly new bike shop? I didn’t realize there aren’t too many full service shops left in DC.

    Another horrible selfie (of me, Tyler looks great! �� ��).

    PS Those tracks scare the crap out of me. I finally pulled off to a parallel street. Road is too narrow too!

    I’m Herndon’ more than Reston’
    Elephant hunt in’

    Calvin Ball reseeded. Ricardo didn’t really get the whole Calvin Ball thing and had me write my name down. He went to look on the shelf. A shelf of shoes. I showed him a picture. That worked! Glad no one stole my bike! There was a parking garage next door so it was semi out of site near the attendants. At least I know a good shoe place now!

    I’m shitty at taking selfie’s, but Matt is holding the Calvin Ball. You can see the top of the elephant for at least partial credit!

    It looks like the winds won’t even start to subside until after 3 or 4, so good luck gettin’ it Virginy Folk – HaHaHAhaHa!

    OH that’s right. That dumb app/website. Proposing NEW and IMPROVED ORDINANCE. 1 point NOT to use 3 fracking things or whatever it’s called! Tigers can’t type well! They’d rather use their hunting instincts.

    So, I’m here. Finally. Honestly, I have more trouble navigating through the forum on an iPhone (I still can’t find Pointless Prizes – no hambirder) than riding, but maybe no top 10 for me this year because I’m recovering from an injury. Surgery was New Years Eve! Well, basically pulling some pins out, but I’ve got a ways to go.

    I’ll see if I can find us on STRAVA. Calvin Ball is fun btw.

    The Calvinball has been deployed at ///mirror.nail.salsa
    It’s under the blue bridge in Shirlington that connects 4MR and New District brewing.
    Proposed ordinance is an extra point should be granted if the contents help with a freezing saddles pointless prize.
    Also, I nominate both Sarah Bee and Judd for assist points. Sarah for bringing the Calvinball to HH and to Judd for not looking down to see it
