Did I notice on Strava that you avoided the big hill at the endâŚwell, avoided most of it?
If Iâd known youâd all be taking the easy option to doing 1,000km in a month, I would never have sponsored you.
Itâs like Colonel Tom using a mobility scooter.
I knew some pedantic bugger would ask that, let me point something out to you on my routeâŚ

The bit where I double back on myself (at the top of a short climb) was because the bizzies had closed the road off due to something. I would normally have followed the yellow and orange bit, the orange bit is where that climb (that isnât a climb) isâŚ
So basically I had to add an extra 2-3 miles to my route to get around a police road block.

I find in times of personal challenge, asking myself âwhat would Colonel Tom do?â helps.

Well quick update, just gone past 400km but am about 100 behind schedule as the weather up hear is not being kind with high winds⌠seemingly timed to do heir worst when I actually have time to get outâŚ
Bob and Neil also cracking on so just need a bit more cash to keep us going 


I think you guys should post links to Strava rides. So we can keep the thread updated.
Also, we can check if @BTripz is avoiding hills again.
9th ride this month, 290miles so far (467 km for @Map-Of-Tasmania)
