Thread 'The Not BIYF January Ride Thread'

First winter in a long time that we have not had the base in your face contest. In lieu of a winter long thing, i always thought that shorter “contests” would attract more people as the BIYF was always over in a few weeks anyways. So here it is:

Post your rides in january within a couple days of them happening:
  • Each ride gets 1 point per hour, strava/garmin/map my ride or similar link required. I will round to 0.01 of an hour, no minimum.
  • A picture with your ride gets 1 point, images of your ride stats, or zwift picture doesnt count. Multiple pictures is cool but no extra...
  • Like
  • Love

The main downside of the entire winter BIYF is that is becomes a runaway for the top 3 by the end of the first month, if not the first couple weeks. The middle people can always reach and be motivated by this but by February they lose interest. The people in the lower 1/3 will drop out even sooner. We tried elite and mortals but a similar thing happens.

We could do a 2 week holiday edition and then separate January and February editions.

Thoughts?
