again, there are lots of non commute rides logged e.g a 142.07 km ride over 5hrs is not a commute by any stretch of the imagination. ๐Ÿ™„

Got to agree Bruneep, I have seen a few... Not really in the spirit of things.

Like I said before, I appreciate my commute isn't direct, however it's to and from work.

Thanks - I'll take a look.

I don't think I can remove individual workouts but I can kick people off the challenge if they are not playing fair.

bruneep: are you talking about [url= http://www.endomondo.com/workouts/159416139/3786041 ]this workout[/url] from Greig Brown?

That is marked as [i]Cycling,Sport[/i] so it won't count towards the Winter Warrior challenge.

He does have some others marked Transport that are clearly circular Sport routes. I've left a comment on one of them to see what he has to say.

Greig has withdrawn from the challenge of his own accord.

Not long to go now. The challenge finishes at the end of this month!

2 weeks snowboarding and a week of childcare has taken a fair chunk out of my Jan and Feb totals. Was hoping to break 1000km but looks like I'll have to make do with ~950.

I was hoping to crack 1000 miles, but I don't think I'm going to get there. I'll keep trying though ๐Ÿ™‚

Happy to have got over the 1000 mile mark with a week to go.
Thank you Graham for making me do it!
The amazing Chris Bolton has put on 700 miles in a week but seems to do it in really small steps of a couple of miles each.

Just a quick thought... Shouldn't this challenge be open until 31st March?

Sore loser?
:0)

Enjoyed that although Ice and work getting in the way in December and Snow in January scuppered me mostly.

How about a full year commuting one?

I'm with will, the challenge was clocks back until clocks forward wasn't it?

Year full commuting would be good! Can a challenge be set up and miles be added for time already past? if that makes sense?

I also thought it was until clocks went forward, and got quite excited when I though the clocks were going forward on the 28th Feb ๐Ÿ˜†

As promised I've created a new challenge on Endomondo, open to all you hardy souls brave enough to keep commuting by bike through the depths of the UK winter.

I wouldn't call March the depths of winter ;0)
Although it's still a bit nippy out.

How about one during Summer or more commonly known as the "rainy season"
I'll probably do less :0)

Good work and you're most welcome.

Well done everyone who took part. You have proven yourself Warriors, one and all ๐Ÿ˜€

I think so. I know if you join a challenge that has already started then it checks all your existing workouts, so yeah it should work.

Was thinking the same thing myself: -3°C, good covering of snow and an icy headwind. Lovely.

I could have run the challenge till end of March, but I think that would give the southern softies too much of an advantage. ๐Ÿ˜‰

I've just been sent a link by Endomondo for 50% off premium membership. I don't want it so does anybody else?
