Join Our Challenge Team!
 The League of American Bicyclists National Bike Challenge starts May 1. The Gainesville Cycling Club Team is now signing up members to defend our national #1 title from the last two years. We expect stiff competition from other teams, so we need YOU to sign up and log your miles. If you do not have an account from last year, click the Join link on the top line. Otherwise, just log in (you should already be signed up for our team).
The way the competition works is that you earn 20 points for each day that you ride, plus a point for each mile. Someone who rides a mile a day around their neighborhood earns 147 points a week; a weekend warrior doing 50 mile rides on Saturday and Sunday will earn 140 points. As you can see, everyone can significantly contribute to our team by riding just a few minutes, but by doing it most every day.
There are several ways on the web site to join a team. One way is to click on Leaderboards (below the red bar), then click on Teams. Below the listing of teams will be a link to "Search For A Team To Join". Click that, and then enter Gainesville Cycling Club in the By Name search box.
Logging your miles manually on the web site is quick, and once you've done it a few times, easy. You can also hook up a Garmin type device to log your miles using several different web site options -- this is not required.
