It’s not secret that I loved the Rapha Turkey Takeoff Challenge on Strava.com. I was really hoping that they would do more Strava challenges in the future. Well, I didn’t have to wait long. Friday kicks off the Rapha Festive 500, which gives Strava users from Dec. 23 – Dec. 31 to ride 500 km (about 311 miles).
Peter and I are already planning a big ride for Friday to start the event right. In a tribute to Seinfeld we will:
- Start the ride with “airing of grievances”
- Perform “feats of strength” on the bicycle (maybe attack a Strava KOM or two?)
- Include a Festivus Miracle (maybe a flat-free-ride)
I don’t have a Festivus Pole, but maybe we’ll finish the ride with a spin up Flag Pole Hill. Happy Festivus everyone!
