Subject: TEAM ANNOUNCEMENT: Tour De France Bike Challenge 2008

Welcome the Tour De France Bike Challenge here on BT for a second year! This year we have an amazing number of riders signed up to ride on a total of 13 teams.

To get everyone started I have listed all of the BT teams below and tried to honour all team requests. With all of the people involved if you seem to be missing or spot any mistakes just post below or shoot me a PM and I will get back to you! A few of the teams have one less team mate, if we get any late sign ups to the challenge they will be added to these teams to keep the competition and numbers balanced.

Each of the teams has its own team thread (that I am posting up now) which includes an introduction to your pro tour team equivalent and will also include essential information such as reporting weeks, links to your team spreadsheet and your team line up.

This challenge is about providing you with motivation and support to reach your personal cycling goals – and it’s about having fun! So please introduce yourself in your team thread plus try to motivate each other through both the team thread and inspires on team mates logs.

As with all challenges I expect there will be some inter team ‘smack’ talk (aka sledging), challenges etc… all of this banter is posted within the spirit of enjoying the challenge and getting motivated so always read a post with that in mind!

That’s enough from me, rules are in the original sign up thread, additional details such as weekly tracking dates and locations of the logging spreadsheets will be in your team thread.

As always- any questions just let me know!

So… here are the teams:

To Team Columbia and assorted other "wanna be" challenge winners.
There is a way to be automaticlly advised when someone from our team posts. All you have to do is go to the bottom of the thread and click on the "Actions Toggle e-mail notification" box.
That way you will get an email notification when ever one of the team posts.

Hi Cat - quick question on logging stages and time for week 2 and beyond

it looks like we are maybe supposed to update week two and beyond with the cumalitve totals as opposed to the totals for that week - so if someone had 2 stages in week 1 and 1 in week 2 the # of stages should be 3.  is that correct?

thanks!

A couple of us on team Columbia are having trouble accessing the spreadsheet. I have tried every way I can think of to get in, but no luck. I haven't changed the link stated in my goals, and I just don't know what else to try. Would you mind posting the link here, or in our team thread, again, to see if that will resolve the issue?

Thanks, Dee! That did the trick. I don't what was happening. I had been using my link since the beginning of the challenge without any problems. I think there was a little difference in this link that you posted, so I replaced mine. Now it works. I dunno.

Thank you, thank you.

Well, I thought it was good. Now I can access it, but can't make any changes to my numbers. I'm starting to feel like I am a high maintenance BTer. I'm sorry about that.
