Additional Info

The Challenge starts and ends based on each cyclist's local time zone.

All activities logged during the Challenge period must be uploaded to Strava no later than three days after the Challenge ends.

We expect all athletes to honor the Strava Community Standards, which includes abiding by all health advisements and restrictions in your area prior to undertaking any physical activity.

With this in mind, GPS, manual entries, virtual activities and trainer workouts will count toward this challenge. Many of you take a lot of well-deserved pride in your challenge accomplishments, and we want to help you stay motivated even if you aren't able to get outside as you normally would. There's never been a better time for us to make indoor activities count toward challenges, and so we're happy to respond to this long-standing request.

Activity privacy settings must be marked "Everyone" to count towards the Challenge goal.
