On the first day of each month we set our MyWhoosh Big Ride Challenge riders two extra challenges to take on. These vary every month, depending on the seasons and where a typical riders's fitness is at that time of year.
They're easy to complete if you ride regularly, and most of them can be done on indoor trainers as well as out on the road. Some challenges will focus on distance, or altitude gained, others on searching out new places to ride. They're designed to be a bit of fun, and keep everyone motivated through the year, no matter what annual total they're aiming for.
This month, no matter the overall distance goal you're aiming for in 2025, your first challenge is to complete your longest ride of the year. And if you like climbing then the second goal should be right up your (hilly) street! (Hint: kill two birds with one stone and nail both in just one ride…)
