#Coffeeneuring DNF: Down To The Wire

So today was the final day of the 2014 Coffeeneuring Challenge

I simply ran out of time to complete seven rides, squeezed between coursework deadlines, relatives coming to visit and a migraine ambush. 

Still, last year I only managed four rides, so I'm pretty pleased with six this year. If I hadn't missed the second weekend altogether and thus found myself playing catchup, I'm sure I could have finished. 

Meanwhile, I have thoroughly enjoyed seeing the photos posted up by other coffeeneurs on the Facebook page. There are some very talented photographers out there, pedalling, sipping and snapping. 

I hope the two other UK bloggers (The Pointless Project and Town Mouse) who I know were participating, have completed in style. 

How did you do? 

Same time next year, then?

  1. Sadly I didn't even start this year as I was off the bike for the first few weeks of it. Next year though!

  2. Go show anyway! I know you tried. Submit your info. to MG anyway;she may publish runners up contestants and at the very least it's encouragement to others.

    1. Hmm, I don't know... do you reckon? Surely she's got enough proper submissions to deal with. Seems a bit too cheeky to submit an incomplete one!

    2. Perhaps you're right. This challenge has grown and it's surely hard work to compile and list all finishers.

    3. Hmmm, I think you should give it a go! Send in your info. 6 is mighty close...

  3. Oh dear. Seems I have two deadlines at midnight tonight: Validate 6/7 of my Coffeeneuring 2014, or write a paper without which I cannot pass the final compulsory module of my Law Degree. Hmmmmm....
