Ken, let me respectfully point out that the Ballinascorney climb is duplicated in the climbs list, on lines 17 and 25 of the spreadsheet - same Strava URL in both. Of course, it would be open to you becuse of its nastiness to count it as 2 climbs.....
Still a great list!

Hey Tom
Well spotted!
I think as you say given it’s nastiness
it would be reasonable to attribute x 2 to it.

Ken, a slippery slope. What about Luggala, where I suffered on Monday, Sl. Maan, Kilmashogue Lane, and and and......Don't sacrifice your hard-won reputation for severity!

Tom you’re right.
Let’s keep this little accomodation
between us and draw a line under
any future arrangements.

Yet another complaint, Ken: Having added in the ascent of Mt. Seskin from the Brittas side to an arduous 100 km spin recently, I was devastated to find it wasn't included in the Climbs list. Is this some mean prejudice on the Compiliers' part? Just because it's not as tough as the climb on the other side from the N81??

BTW also some people seem to be filling in the Climbs Challenge form with totals of metres climbed rather than the number of climbs ticked off? Or is it me that's got it wrong?

Disappointed to see the fairly small takeup on filling in the challenge forms. Does the deadline need to be extended?

Hi Tom
If the peak is specified then climbing it from 2 sides can count as 2:)
As you say Tom total number of peaks climbed is what is to be logged NOT metres.
The guidance and the form itself were fairly clear and I’d ask anyone who has submitted metres climbed to resubmit the number of specified peaks climbed instead.
The Challenges themselves remain open for the moment so riders are free to join them.
Quite a few signed up Tom but not too many have logged progress indicating a change of mind in my view is all
Cheers for now.
Ken

Thanks to everyone who signed up to the Leisure Challenges.
I've moderated the April progress and all entries are now correctly reflected in the Challenges table linked below.

It's been a pretty good start so well done all!

One thing to note on the Climbing Challenge - Please log the number of peaks climbed only!

Several riders have logged metres climbed, several named the peaks while others have identified them by number from the Climbing Challenges Excel table ... I have corrected each of these for the Challenges Table.

I hope May is going well for everyone!

Best of luck.

Ken, I seem to have missed the May deadline by a day - pleading a week in Spain to 3 June and the stress of the approaching W/200. Can I ask the favour of inserting the following numbers:
970 km in May
5 listed climbs done in May
6 100 km spins in May

Tom

Ken: Ignore my last post. I thought I was blocked out of the progress form because, believe it or not, I was positioning my cursor in the wrong place.....I've now updated for May. Forgive this foolishness.

Hi Ken
The 2 ballinascorney routes in the spreadsheet copied below have the same Strava route number? Presume they should not? Also cannot get the route 19166681 to work? Is it just me, or is there a digit wrong?

Regards
Shauna

Hi Shauna
The 2 routes is likely an oversight.
On this one if you do it once you get credit for 2 routes :).
Regarding the route 19166681, if you copy and past the links into your browser they should both work. I've just tested them and they seem fine.
Simply clicking on them is frequently not enough as you'll often experience issues with that approach in Excel.
Hope that helps.
Ken

Ken, did you intend to exclude from the list the Lough Bray climb, from Glencree towards Sally Gap, i.e. Strava segment
www.strava.com/segments/4244156
I know it's a part of 'Liam Horner - Powerscourt Waterfall to Sally Gap' but surely you didn't want to deprive of credit those of us who make the regular trip over the Featherbed to Sally Gap via Glencree??
Or is it lurking in the list under another name?

Tom, apologies on the late reply .... I thought you had been answered already though that was my mistake.
Your forensic eye is most diligent and keeping us on our toes :)
You are correct Tom, there was no intention to deprive. If you haven't already stick it in for June or alternatively top up your July climbs.
All the very best.

So has the Lough Bray climb been added to the list? if not, maybe you'll do so. If so, tell me and I'll find it and add it to my tally!
