Here it is – your chance to take part in a bit of fun against your clubmates to see who is the top GMBC member, based on a shonky scoring system. The idea is to encourage some participation and friendly competition and promote a few activities during the club’s 30th anniversary year.
How does it work?
- Participate in activities on the list
- Earn points
- The points are tallied and the league table is published occasionally
What could I win?
A warm feeling of self-satisfaction that you are indeed an awesome member of GMBC. Apart from that we may have some very naff prizes and use the results for some sort of competition at the 30th anniversary weekend celebration.
What are the activities then?
Some are bike related and some aren’t. You’ll get points for taking part or getting involved, you’ll get some bonus points for getting on a podium, you’ll sometimes get more points for helping to organise stuff. Here’s a few examples of where points could be earned:
Paying your subs promptly, entering an SMBO, helping at trail maintenance, riding singlespeed, bonus points for organising the Mugdock SMBO, flipping burgers at the BBQ, organising rides, pulling someone out of the canal during the 12hour GMBC pub social ride, entering an organised event like 10 Under, taking KOMs off Tom Wylie 😉

NB: events in green are the current open events
How do I log my results?
In some cases you won’t need to log results as we’ll collect them as part of the activity. However, sometimes you’ll need to log your results using this form.
Where do I see results and the League Table?

Not that it matters, or anything, and purely hypothetically, if I were to currently share a KOM with Tom and beat it, would that count for points in this?
It sure would!
Oh, and there will be points for the efforts of those who were at the velodrome session on Sunday there. I’ll work out some sort of allocation.
That’s good to theoretically know. My last track events for a while are this Saturday, then I’ll be off for some rides hunting out tailwind segments etc.
Jeezo – you have been busy! 4 KOMs taken off Mr Wylie and the last one by only 1 second. Good efforts!
I took a big one off luke. Do I get any points? A sececent too.double points.
Lol.
