It's Christmas time, and here at road.cc we're throwing off our weekend shackles and bringing the spirit of #mycyclingweekend to the entire festive period with the road.cc #mycyclingchristmas.
So throughout the festive period if you're doing anything cycling related - and we're sure you will be - share it with the rest of us either here, or on Instagram, Facebook, or Twitter using the #mycyclingchristmas hashtag.
Points will be awarded for those replacing cake stop for mince pie breaks, and for any on-bike Christmassy modifications or decorations (check out the Charge Christmas saddle below). Luckily The Grinch isn't in charge so well even be happy to see pics of you in your favourite Christmas themed jersey.
If you manage to combine cycling and a portrayal of one of the 12 days of Christmas in one pic - there could be prizes - there definitely will if you can do it on the relevant day. Christmas is a time of giving after all, and sharing too!
We'll definitely be doing something with five gold rings on the road.cc Turkey Burner (yes it's on the fifth day of Christmas) if you'd like to join us you can find out more here and you can sign up here.
Christmas is usually a bit of a mixed bag for cyclists. Sure, there's the family time, the generous gifts - hopefully including a few bike bits - and some great food, but the weather can be pretty grim, and the temptation to over eat can be hard to resist.
A cyclist's Christmas survival guide - 7 tips for surviving the festive period
Fortunately for you guys, road.cc can help you out with one of those problems, and the other problem appears to be being partially dealt with by our false friend global warming - it's not cold, but you better prepare to get muddy.
If you're a bit worried about your calorie intake over the coming days, and what overdoing it could mean for your training regime - or your Strava segment chasing - we've got a little guide that should go some way towards helping.
Other than that, though, it's up to you to enjoy and ride and eat as much or as little as you want! The only thing you've got to remember is to send us all of the Christmas-y and cycling-y things you do.
Whether they're gifts, like this one that was sent into the road.cc office yesterday
Or Christmas dos or Christmas rides with your cycling friends, like this cake stop on Timsbury Cycle Group's last weekend:
