Just like last year, this thread is an information sharing thread for individuals taking the CAM (century a month) Challenge in 2008.

Note that because we are getting a late start on 2008 and some who might otherwise want to take the challenge may miss January, it is OK for such people to to double up centuries in one month of their choosing (meaning 12 centuries in 11 months) in order to catch up. Purists may object, but in the immortal words of Greek philosopher Zeno of Elea - "Whatever."

CENTURY FAQ:




What Counts?

• Any formally organized/sponsored ride that is billed as a century, even if the ride organizers were too lame to get the total mileage up to 100. If you feel you need to do parking lot repeats to make up the deficit then have at it, but don't feel obligated
• Any informal or solo ride that totals 100 miles
• This is self reported. I am not going to second guess whether you completed a century or whether your Garmin was working properly that day There is no money at stake here.

PLEASE, DO NOT REPLY TO POSTS OR POST ANYTHING OTHER THAN YOUR DATA.

Please post the data for your century/month as follows:

Date of Ride:
Type of Ride: (group ride or solo ride)
Name of organized ride or route:
Actual Mileage:
Ride Time:
Total Time:
Avg. Speed:
Altitude Climbed: (if available, either by route map, or cycling computer)
Weather conditions:
Synopsis of Ride: (please be respectful as you never know who might read this)

Remember, even if you don't make all twelve, please still post your data for as many months as you can - all centuries are an accomplishment! So, although this is a challenge, it is in the spirit of camaraderie! Double centuries count, but only as a single century. Metric centuries will be scorned without mercy.

Below is the official list that is based on the 2008 CAM Poll thread. If those of you who are planning to go stealth this year, or are on the fence want to join the fun please let me know. If you do not see your name or century months updated, please PM me, and I will update your info. Thank you!
