So there are 9 challenges and 90 days? So is the aim to get the most points you can out of each challenge? Or do you do the 9 and then go back to the first one and keep going?

 

[TriumfAnt]

Each challenge only once. Extra points can be gained if strangers ask what you're doing while running around your bike shouting "Solar Bear, Solar Bear...". If you just say it quietly, nobody will notice. Also, if you persuade any strangers to join you in the bike runaround. Anything unusual or extra to what the basic challenge entails are eligible for extra points, but all at the discretion of 08ride.

Want me to edit your original post?

Great if you would. Cheers.

Interesting how many people from the Netherlands are joining in. Let me check when my current Youtube Serie is completed, and when there is some time left I will also join in!

Unfortunately sound a bit mean not intended!
Hope nobody was trying to loophole the challenge!

That's on the board, Wyvern. I'm not going to comment on each vlog from now - if I have "liked" a vlog, I have watched and accounted it in the standings. No need for me to spam this thread incessantly

"hey hey, worrabaht that then?"

That nearly deserves an extra point on its own. But maybe I'm Yorkshire-biased, so no can do. But your vlog is the slowest of the slow rides so far, even if it was uphill, and you included a "fail", so you never know, one may be awarded yet
