Happy New Year! Now here's a Monkey.

It's a new year and with that brings new hope that I can

publish (at least) more than three blog entries a month.

As usual, I was sick during the month of December so my

riding slagged off, much like the rest of my year.

To counterbalance the lackluster year that was 2013

I've decided to start off 2014 in brilliant fashion.

I give to you:

THIS IS NOT A RESOLUTION 

1000KM CHALLENGE

(Not to be confused with the Festivus 500 Gumball Rally)

That's right folks, for the month of January rack up 1000km 

post pictures of your glorious (and not so glorious rides) on Instagram or Twitter 

using the hashtag:

#tinar1000

at the end of the month I will peruse the entries and then send out 

special limited edition TINAR 1000 stickers. Patches are too friggin expensive.

I was going to do this challenge on my own but I like the idea of having a way to share

my rides with others and have them share theirs. My theory is that hopefully I'll

get some motivation from you guys, if it's needed, who am I kidding? of course I need motivation! 

I just don't want any show-offs who ride the entire thing in one weekend. 

This challenge is for those who don't usually partake in Gentleman's

races and such. You know who you are.
