I liked this challenge. It was a good reason to ride some different workouts!
#rodeforabadge
Agreed, I enjoyed all four workouts and itās always good to be reminded to do āElements of Styleā again. Really like Portugal Cascais and Ruta Chingaza although in terms of workouts I would ride more than once or twice The Way Out and Elements of Style definitely have the edge. You just gotta love Carlton Kirby
Nice idea. I had two of these on my schedule already last week so switched things around to do all four. Really enjoyed the Portugal one, looks a great route
Carlton Kirby has THAT something going for him. I wonder if a collaboration between him and Michael Cotty could be pulled off.
Congratulations, we already have over 100 people who have completed the November challenge!
Who is getting close?
Which was your favourite workout and why?
Or a collab with Jose Been on a ProRide? Having Jose doing the intro/outro and handing off to Carlton for some commentary could be fun. Yes, I know youāre the rider and the rider hears the DS and not the Eurosport commentary, but still, Iām sure thereās scope for something.
Iāve The Way Out planned for tomorrow, and thatāll complete the challenge for me. Given that my outdoor season ended yesterday (first heavy snowfall of the season in Montreal today), Iām l pleased to finish it that quickly. While Iāve done The Way Out many many times and love it, the new On Location ride is fantastic. Iād have a hard time choosing between those two. Ruta Chingaza is a good documentary, but not something Iād ride more than once (well, twice now, as I redid it for the challenge).
EOS is a classic and is very well done, but not really among my favourites.

My vote goes to On Location - these rides are a great combination of footage and scenery, information about the area, and an excellent workout.
I like all of them though, so itās tough to pick just one. Theyāre very different, and each one can be the ārightā one for me to ride depending on the day.
PLEASE⦠NO Carlton K. Heās just the worst. Adam Blythe as a replacement
Hear hear. Cascais was a superb workout and great video.
What about Rob Hatch?
I could live with that but Adam Blythe has more passion
The Way out.
Why: I nearly managed to do it on my own targets. Close !!
Love the idea of them being relatively short for now, 4 is good. Having them themed is great, and surfacing some of the fewer played content would be awesome.
I also like the art - a badge has gotta look good.
I had intended to do all 4 sessions in a day, like a challenge within a challenge. Obviously I never got round to doing that, but agreed, a relatively small number of lesser used sessions is perfect for mixing it up without getting in the way too much of an existing plan (or life).
Looking forward to the December edition.
300 of you have already achieved the November Challenge CONGRATS!!
There is still 1 week to go so plenty of time if you are in the process of completing or havenāt even started yetā¦
Keep up the hard work, Decemberās challenge isnāt far away now either - lots more fun stuff planned!!
I got that badge without even being aware it existed.
3 down, just the one to goā¦
I managed to add it in on top of the MAP block Iād scheduled. The On Location in Portugal was spectacular!
Yay snuck in the last of the four this morning and I must say I saved the best for last. Thank you sir @michael.cotty for another āA-Maze-ingā ride to the rain forest. I must say I burned some serious calories today. Great ride. Looking forward to more of these short little monthly challenges. Cheers!!
