At the time of writing the Festive 500 global bunch has collectively amassed over 1 million kms. On Strava alone almost 30 people have already broken the 500 mark with a good group on track for a cool 1000. You people are truly mad for the mileage. Here’s a quick roundup of some of the highlights we’ve seen online. Good luck for the coming weekend and remember, every kilometre counts!
Here is a selection of some of the highlights so far:

I'm feeling James McCallum's pain - I 'lost' 37.2km today due to a phone crash.

12 miles and 1200ft of a climb on Christmas Day is my lot I'm afraid. Looking forward to many miles in 2013.

That was an amazing challenge and I worked hard for every single km mostly in wind and driving sleet! But wouldn't have it any other way! :)
A round-up of all of my rides are on my blog: http://wheelspedalsperson.posterous.com/?tag=2012&;tag=festive500
Thanks Rapha for organising the best challenge of the year! :)
