Oh man, too much construction!!
Some were relieved, and all were spared a full effort up Bear (unless they wanted to!) Everyone who rode it were given 50pts, you're all #1 to me! =)
Honourable mentions to Dan B, Nicky and Dave B who all put in a bit of an effort and cracked 10mins!
Things were a lot more spicy over on Shaw, and lots of great times posted there!
For bike racing fans, there's no shortage of screen time today, I watched both the cross country races, with solid rides from Canadians (Carter Woods is from up island for those unfamiliar!) The women's Amstel race had quite a surprise at the end, and it was a bit of a shock not seeing MVDP factoring in the men's race. And there was the Track Nation's Cup in Milton, with several medal rides from Canadians!
And this upcoming week features....you guessed it - more hills! Including what might be our steepest ever segment! Keep on scrolling, brave warriors!
HOUSEKEEPING
Notes for the week:
Just a note for Keith B - your ride up Bear Mtn didn't quite go far enough to trigger the segment, but you were close enough and I've awarded you the points.
Reminder if your time didn't record (this week or any), please either tag me in your ride, comment on the Strava group post, or send me an email -- if you rode it, I can usually figure out a 'manual' time for you, but you need to let me know! 😁
06 <- THIS MANY WEEKS WITHOUT AN ERROR 🤣

SPONSORS AD
This week's sponsor is from the exciting new website DecidingFactorsApp.com!
We've already got lots of apps and programs to track our riding and fitness, but the REAL factors affecting your performance and race results are rarely tracked.
Which is why we're bringing you the DECIDING FACTORS APP!
Did you race with your lucky socks? Did you put on your HR monitor clicking the left side, or the right side first? What colour was your hairband?
It can be hard figuring out what exactly caused you to get that great result, but the DECIDING FACTORS APP sorts that all out for you!
Before each ride, and following each ride, you fill out a quick 250 question survey that prompts you to report all these details, and so many more!
What kind of cereal did you have? Was it soy milk or oat milk? Which shoe did you put on first? Did you put your shoes on first, or your helmet first? Which gloves were you wearing? Which hand did you put the glove on first? Did you put on your gloves before or after your shoes? Did you undo the velcro on your gloves, or just ignore it?
All these decisions make a HUGE different in your performance, and all the top pros know this, and track this independently, but will no doubt be signing up for a DECIDING FACTORS APP account!
Using our advanced algorithms, our app then sorts out which DECIDING FACTORS you've done when you had your best performances, and then prompts you to make sure you're wearing the right socks and put the correct shoe on the correct foot first.
Why take the risk? You could be ruining your entire cycling career, and not even know it! Is Mercury in retrograde again? The DECIDING FACTORS app puts that retrograde in retrograde!
Let us take the mystery out of the universe for you, and download the DECIDING FACTORS app today!
Use the hashtag #MyDECIDINGFACTORS for 20% off our app!
