I think I started early- if so sorry TT

Sorry I didn't get it started at 8pm!

I think because it is so hard to see the elapsed time when trying to join, we should just agree that everyone joins at their number of minutes past 8pm and I will try and start the session as close to 8pm as possible, cutting short the warm up if need be.

That way we can all just sync watches with the Internet and join when the correct time is reached.

Yes Geoff I think you've solved the mystery - it's all AAAC'S fault!

Of course!
It always is, ask HID, plus I am a Project Manager so I obviously haven't got a clue what I'm doing and when it should be done and how long it take and cost.

That said re the password.
I assume you log into the ride, go to settings and turn on the password option and I also assume it then lets you set a password.
4TR if I ever set of early and apply a password it will be something nondescript like 'Bridgy'.

Well done everyone, especially @CXRAndy for winning and @Perky77 with the most improved award!
If Andy had started on time you would have been neck and neck on the line!

A special mention to @bridgy for the fastest time and the greatest sudden weight loss awards!

These are the adjusted times (Moving Time + allocated Start Time)

Well done Andy!

No worries Bob, I think you may have or perhaps I started late. But I had a bit of a disaster anyway, and you looked very strong, so I don't think it changed much.

 

[bobinski]

I don't feel so bad now! I was genuinely broken by the speed you went past me.
I of course have never made this mistake

 

[AAAC 76C]

Oh Cr@p!! No, sorry - wife borrowed trainer earlier and I forgot to change the weight back

HID is lighter than you!
Not the case in my house anymore but that's probably because mine is taller than me, I'm 6:1 and she is 5:4 and older than me as I am 56 and she is 51.
I think I have got that all wrong but I won't mention it out loud for fear of becoming a eunuch.

Note:
eunuch
ˈjuːnək/
noun

1. a man who has been castrated, especially (in the past) one employed to guard the women's living areas at an oriental court.
   • an ineffectual person.
     "a nation of political eunuchs"

PS:
I expect you can only be castrated in the past because until it happens your not castrated.
Wouldn't mind the job you can get though and I am definitely ineffectual.!

Where man flu nearly got me - that session has just about finished me off
That was a real struggle all the way to keep the power on

I started at the correct time as I watch the start, start my phone count down to my time, come out of session and then rejoin as time elapses

Great ride @CXRAndy, we started at same time and I couldn't stay with you

 

[bobinski]

Well done Andy! and Martin! Excellent rides.

4TR if I ever set of early and apply a password it will be something nondescript like 'Bridgy'.

Select the league ride, go to settings and just type in a password (I also always turn off real weather to avoid riding in the dark) then Start. That should stop others from joining the session and keeping it alive after you have left.

 

[CXRAndy]

Thanks guys, I was feeling quite good tonight. I was interested if I could replicate Saturday's effort on a new tyre. I had a slow internet connection tonight so only saw Jlaw and you Perky. You were gaining on me up the hill, I was begging for the crest to come. Then my dwarf star mass would help me

I drop 18kgs and STILL can't get the most improved time?!!

 

[AAAC 76C]

As I went at a sub-maximal pace today I was able to pay attention to the stats a bit more.
BSim is far from on the nose still.
I was getting 'unearned' power spikes on slope transitions still and the time delay for resistance to change is still really slow but it makes up for it by being slow to come off after cresting.
Has anyone else shared the same findings.
My PC clock is still out of sync with BSim by 20 seconds so I do need to sort that.

 

[AAAC 76C]

keeping it alive after you have left.

Don't like the sound of that!

Apparently I only went 6 seconds slower and I walked! (kind of)
