Who was ACC's Most Competitive Rider in 2006?

[Toks]

I was just trying to work out how many competitive rides I did this year. By competitive, I mean races/rides that I paid to enter. Obviously training rides can also be competitive but they're free

2 Cyclosportivs
5 (approx) Training Races at Eastway
23 BCF/ESL
2 Vet races

Total 32 Competitive Rides

I'd be surprised if anyone beats Jon or Sylvain

[Dr Frigo]

Not so - I had tried counting mine when you'd posted elsewhere having done about 25, and I'd come with this:

OFF ROAD
Enduro 6h 1
Bristol 12h 1
SSMM 24h 1
SITS 24h 1
SSWC 1
Beastway 9
X-Challenge 3
CX 1
TOTAL OFF ROAD 18



ROAD
Palace 3
ACC champs Eway 1
Eway 3
Hillingdon 2
Wales cyclo 1
4-up tt 1
TOTAL ROAD 11

TOTAL 29


If you could count the total time on bike then maybe!

[Toks]

Ok its definitely gotta be Jon or Rich then!

[kieran]

well I won't be challenging you lot, I didn't even keep a full count:

2 Hillingdon
1 Dunsfold
1-2 training eastway?
2 eastway races
1 ACC champs eastway
1 track Herne Hill league
Crystal palace, not sure - 10?
1 cyclosportive

TOTAL: around 19-20

1 cyclosportive

[Andrew G]

Blimey Sylv
2 x 24hr
1 x 12hr
1 x 6hr
ALL off-road

Forget the nominees in the other thread, surely here we have the "king of pain" champion.

[Toks]

I think one competitive 24 hour race should count for about the intensity of Eight crit races. There you go Sylv you're the winner

[Gavin]

Marmotte

Total 1

Calm down dears ...

6h in pair = 3h
12h in team of 4 = 3h
24h both in teams of 4 = 6h each

I haven't done a 24h solo since 2003!

hi Toks, yeah around 10 or under I would guess, sometimes the only ACC guy to turn up , problem was I timed my holiday right in the midde so just as getting competitive I go and have a 3 week break, one week back racing and then another week away (two weekends gone) then back for the last few, which were getting pretty short due to the early nights coming in. Basically got about 5 days cycling done in August

[Jon H]

14 x 10mile TT.
8 x 25mile TT.
8 x 50mile TT.
2 x 100mile TT.
1 x 12hour TT.
6 x odd distance TT.
1 x 4up TT.
2 x cyclospotives.

I make that 42. Douglas Adams would be pleased.

Marco, you must be overtrained, take winter off, mulled wine and mince pies are just what the doctor ordered.

Cheers

1x 12hr
3 x 100 miles
3 x 50 miles
6 x 25 miles
12 x 10s
5 x other TTs
1 x Marmotte
1 x etape

45 rides if my maths is correct.
