Additional Info

You have to ride 100 kilometers in a single ride, and the elapsed time of the ride must be under 24 hours.

To ensure you meet the Challenge goal, we recommend you ride a small amount over 100 kilometers during your activity (about 3 km / 2 mi). This will give you a buffer in the event your activity distance is shortened after upload to Strava due to the cleanup of GPS irregularities. You can learn about how distance is calculated for our app by reading this Knowledge Base Article.

The Challenge period starts and ends based on each riders local time zone.

Manual entries, virtual rides, e-bike rides, or trainer rides are not eligible. Activity privacy settings must be marked "Everyone" to count towards the Challenge goal.

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