This looks like so much fun. Just placing my order for my shiny new Bkool Pro, so looking forward to joining you all

Guys ...it's here.

I plan to be there tonight but at the rate these windows updates are going on my laptop I'm not so sure...

Guys ...it's here.

Are you all ready to go in tonight's race? Signed up to the league on bkool etc?

Guys ...it's here.

Join us tonight for a race that we call the Chaingang. If you can. Starts 7pm with a 10 min warmup.
Search in the Live tab of Bsim
Assuming you have all that loaded up.

Arrgh, sorry guys - on my own with the kids and I have to feed and get my youngest up to bed yet so I'll need to miss tonight's. Thanks for the invite though and have a great time (in) out there.

Seriously, this update is still only on 30%!!

 

[BILL S]

I didn't get an update.

No me

It's windows not bsim. 50% and likely to force a restart of the computer mid-ride at this rate. FFS! Don't know how to stop it either!

Joining tonight simply to turn the pedals-honest.
its a bit lumpy by profile. Very confusing...

Ryan now snuck up right behind me in the summer cup.

I need some long flat bits more than ever now.

If I do the 2 hilly stages again I might be able to make a few min good . But I am going on holiday on Sunday and will not have time to do the other stages .

I was being a drama queen - computer was fine in the end!

Good race but that was HARD!! Amazed I was able to hold that 10 second gap on you for all that time Bill - my heart rate was through the roof

Great race all, just couldn't keep up the pace.

That was interesting using my race bike. I actually feel like my commute bike is a better climb-bike. I struggled to produce big watts uphill...well, actually the power was very close to my BeBro pedals uphill, but I'm used to Bkool giving me a bit more so it felt like struggling.
On the flat parts I could produce more power, both real power (BePro) and Bkool power, but Bkool even threw an extra 30-40 watt on top.

For the entire race Garmin says 275 watt, Bkool 308 watt.

Good race everyone. Rob you were quite a challenge to catch, only for you to get away. I then thought you were in the red when I eventually got past. Bob, great ride considering you're a bit injured

Similar diference to what I get on the vectors at my registered, not handicap, weight.
