Why So Early?<\/h2>\n

I know that October hasn’t quite finished yet. \u00a0It’s only the 31st as I write this. \u00a0But I was thinking…. it’s Monday, it’s quite warm out (in the UK at any rate<\/em>) and there’s technically one more riding day until November… So maybe, just maybe<\/strong><\/em>, this article might push a few people out of the door tonight.<\/p>\n

I’m also hoping that I might pressure myself<\/strong><\/em> into a final ride, as I’m about 16 miles short of the target for #Oct100.<\/p>\n

How’s The #Oct100 Looking?<\/h2>\n

As at today, we’ve got 4,169 miles ridden in October<\/strong> by 25 cyclists, of which 3,423 was either outdoor leisure miles or time on the turbo trainer.<\/p>\n

You can see the graph by clicking onto the Monthly Cycling Challenge<\/a> page on this site and if you haven’t joined in yet, why not give it a whirl? There’s a wee form there, just fill it in to join or to ask me about it.<\/p>\n

Worth A Mention:<\/h2>\n

Mental John Berry<\/a> turned in his 10,000th mile of 2011 during the month, with over 1,000 miles in this month alone. \u00a0If that’s not worth a special mention, then what the hell is?<\/p>\n

End Note<\/h2>\n

If you think you can, just pull the bike out, check it works and get on it. \u00a0You might only get round the block, you might notch up a 100 mile day like Mental John does some days. \u00a0But I promise you this: you will enjoy yourself.<\/p>\n

\"Just<\/a>
