Rapha are holding an excellent competition to win one of their amazing 'Deep Winter Training' bundle. All you have to do is get out and ride your steed over the festive period, with a view to clocking up 500km (or 311 miles for those of that persuasion). The timeframe to nail these long winter miles is anytime between the 23rd to 31st December. Whilst this may seem a mammoth ask, its worth bearing in mind Rapha's uber endurance go-to man Graeme Raeburn managed to clock up double this distance in the festive week last year!
Rapha re looking for visual representation of your tales on the road, accepting things like garmin files, photographs, illustrations and any other visual treat you can think of to document your travels. The idea being you log your epic challenge in whatever way you fancy, and then either provide links in this comment page ,or either hit them up on their facebook or twitter account. Im going to give it a blast although il be stuck with only a mountain bike from 23-28th, so hitting 500km might be a little touch, but maybe if I can pop out a couple of centuries post 28th I could manage it! Im looking forward to seeing the results of this....
