I must be doing something wrong as I don't get any of the issues you guys get. Could be tempting fate but I never get kicked out, never get screen freezes and never lose my rides. I have an old windows 8 (I think) pc world crappy laptop so maybe old tech is the way forward :laugh: Or maybe I cycle so slow the software can keep up with my pace!:biggrin:

@Breedon I noticed the other day that you were one of the originals on here setting up the cyclechat bkool group, if you go to page 1 of this thread I think you were the 3rd contributor, lol
I always wonder who peteraud is and where he went..... :reading:

Right I'm in the last stages of prep for my first goat session of the month. I should be starting in about 35 minutes or so with stage 1 Puerto de San Lorenzo, any one can join or chase me down and leave me struggling up the hill :cry:.
Still on the train else I'd be tempted!

@Bill are you riding tonight? As the start time is going to be tricky to get spot on, if I join ahead of you I'll look out for you and wait if needed so we're together (as we're meant to start together anyway). We can then do a bit of drafting together at the start to try and close the gap on the others a bit :okay:

Stage number 1 done. Just missed the sub hour 1:01. I'll settle for that. A lot of just blue speed numbers but nothing silly only .2 or .4 kmh above what I was really doing but not permanently on. Now something to eat :mrpig:.
Well done TB - the last 3 km of that Hill is nasty.

I can't like that, but I will agree with it. Although I don't get hit as bad as most due to weight and fw. It is still kicks my backside :B).

@bridgy, looks like I will be there but have no idea how to start or what has been discussed here. I'm running late but will be on the line. Will try to draft with you if I can keep up.
Whats the consensus on how it's best to start this time?

if your there when the flag drops it will be time minus handicap

OK I think the plan is:

1. choose ride and get password error message

2. exit ride with error message and then choose it again about 10 seconds before start time

3 it should now let you enter password and join race

Geoff's put up a video earlier in the thread
