I'm hoping to get towards 50 points this season, but will be happy with 40.  Really I'll be quite happy just to get over last year's total of 26 though.

17 points validated so far, 4 more to be validated.

I reckon 100 now looks 100% unfeasible cos I have only got 5 points in March and only 3 so far in April.  So I will just try to comfortably beat last year's (51).  I will probably have 40 points by the end of June.

The top 100 as of today (out of date):


not just out of date but wrong; I should be in there with 13 (16 after the Invicta

You don't appear to be listed in the table on the AUK website at all (that's where I collected the data from).

Your rides list page appears to be present and correct though.

Target is SR and whatever else I can squeeze in would love to make 40 points which is about as many points as I@m allowed on Weightwatchers.

This is my first year and so any points advice much appreciated.

I have a busy May - Severn Across, Fred Whitton, Bryan Chapman, Grand Tour de Stour upgraded to 300k, and ... oh fuck... Irish Mail 400k to end the month!!!

I was kinda resigned to the fact that I wasn't going to do the 100 points this season but if I do get 17 points this month then it will start to look "on" again.

Long time ago I did manage 41 points in 3 consecutive events, each finishing a week apart.

One of them was a 24 or 26 point permanent?

25, actually. Then a 6, followed by, you know, that 10 point ride.

The one where you got a medal because you were mad enough to start :D

My plan was not based on points but a level of riding. Before my fall and broken shoulder I think I was just about there. I was planning to do 2x 600 and peak in early July at B2F.

My plan now, I will have had about 6 weeks enforced rest, is to get back to fitness, ride DIY 400 and 600 in September. Then maintain fitness before full on LEL campaign next year.

Dam those deer. Let's hope that is all my bad luck out of the way.

Notice the time of the posting. All this rest has played havoc with my sleep patten.
