#Errandonnee Challenge 2014!

That's right -- it's time for the Errandonnee, another ingenious daily-life-friendly challenge from Mary G, blogger at Chasing Mailboxes based in Washington D.C.! (Mary's other annual challenge is Coffeeneuring.)

The Errandonnee involves riding your bike to do 12 errands over 12 days, starting this Friday, 7 March and running up until midnight, Wednesday 19 March.

Yes, technically that is in fact 13 days -- we'll call it a Baker's Dozen!

The Rules are just complex enough to be interesting while also being supremely flexible so that just about anybody can do it.

Last year, 64 people successfully completed the challenge, representing numerous states in the U.S.A., several provinces in Canada, Sweden and Spain. I also know of participants in England and Scotland who did not quite complete the 2013 challenge but nonetheless had a jolly good time trying!

I'm looking forward to Friday as I have three distinct errands to accomplish that day, which will kick things off nicely!
