Sped up from 1/2 way point to chase jonbon and then Rossilo down which was satisfying but hard.

Sorry i bailed out just as you were closing in on me Bob, Was in no mans land for most of the ride and just could't get my head around the last 2 'hills'.. and the choppy video was doing my head in! :wacko:

Much better to do the live events in 3D.

No worries. It was just nice to have someone to aim for ^_^

I had it in 3D too. Froze for seconds at a time. Then there was the disappearing landscape, floating sheep, flashing road, left me feelin quite queasy xx(

I'd totally forgot I had in-laws coming to visit this weekend. I can't really commit to a time.

Set a time that works for you post it and I'll try to join, but it doesn't look promising.
to be honest i am spreading myself a bit thin at the minute . it is silly season at work and had to take a new bloke on , going out in the real world trying to get longer rides under my belt and be bkool so i am jumping on when i can with very little notice when that will be! if things go right i will do handicap tonight plus a little outdoor then try to get home in time tomorrow for the other one

I had forgotten that already. It was a funny old 3D ride. Because it was a little bit erratic I thought my BSim was going to crash so I turned off the Youtube music and switched the ride to 2D.
Up until then there were a lot of dizzy moments cycling through cliffs, near head on collisions, momentary freezes and general distracting visual events including some roller coaster moments.

Saturday re runs usually 5pm go live and start 5.10pm

TTT is a handicap 2 leg experiment to group riders in ability of 4 or so riders. The idea is to keep together in your team to aid drafting and so go faster as a group. As usual who get to the finish line first

If it's popular it will return later in the season

People who were slightly lower than me are now faster than me (Tommyturbo and CXRAndy are the main two but others are closing in quick).
leagues are running as normal (Thursday and Saturday)
TTT is team time trial, 4 teams so far (White, Green, not Red, and Blue), results are based on the third rider across the line for the team. It was based on the handicap system and team white won, team green didn't have three riders, so team not red came in 2nd, a fraction of a second ahead of team blue.

Lots of people have been working late so the league rides haven't been as full as normal, plus some people are cycling outside.

Regarding this weeks Saturday re-run tomorrow, we're still looking for a volunteer to start it at 5pm as I will be otherwise occupied.
Whoever does start it will just need to start it from the Leagues tab and everyone else will join from the Live tab.
From the Leagues tab select Details then Set-up. Unselect Bots & Ghosts and Actual Atmospheric Conditions. Accept, then hit the Start Button when it's 5pm. The warm-up will start so don't let your rear wheel stop moving until its 10 seconds to go. Simples!
 
Sorry Bill, I meant to respond to your original post. I'm happy to start tomorrows session.

Anyone else around? Seems numbers may be a bit thin
I have full intentions of being there but as we all know "the boss" might have other ideas but I'm trying to get my family business done early. I need to as I think I'm already I league run behind this month.

Thanks Tom. I'm sure there'll be one or two joining you. The least number who ever turned up on a Saturday was two. It was me and @Randyberlin :smile: remember that one Randy?
Mind you, I can imagine there's a few desperate for an excuse not to do this one again. I'll probably be doing it again on Sunday.

A brief synopsis .... @gbrown set up a TTT league. It was Tuesday. @Goldwolfie , @bazzer99, @bert1971 and myself were Team White. We won. There were 3 other teams :rofl: Not much more to say really :whistle:
