Points ride classification - August 2

Time to update the general classification of the points ride series. Elisabet's maillot jaune is proving hard to grab. Regulars (and ride leaders) Jeremy and Joe continue to amass points, but Elisabet rarely misses a ride. Will Je-Jo be able to take the top spot when when she's temporarily gone in September?

Andreas quickly made it to the top ten, after attending several rides in a row. He shouldn't have any problem climbing to the top five and crossing the 500-mile mark if he can make it to the upcoming longer rides.

J is fighting hard for the lanterne rouge spot, accumulating -27 points (!!!!!) in a single ride. Whether he broke 27 different rules, or the same rule 27 times, I won't discuss. But it's not hard to believe that he could accomplish such feat in a single morning (those of you who've ridden with J know what I'm talking about...). Please don't do what J does.

These methods are of course, you know, for demonstration purposes only. As in, don't ride directly into wheel-deep potholes, endo in spactacular fashion, and catch your helmet in a second, adjacent pothole.

Also, my surname is apparently now Vansevenant.

So you're taking over your family's farm in a couple of months?!?!
Or maybe on December 31, after you push "restart"?

Wim's cycling CV looks oddly similar to my own; plenty of early success followed by many years of back of the pack suffering and humiliation as a domestique. If not by blood, we are at least spiritual brothers.
