I was going to ask them to do the same with your rides Andy. I am becoming very suspicious of your "improvement"....

I emailed after my summer cup wormhole race but they never removed it.Bkool do review and can pull sessions. I have had it happen with a couple I'd done on short, high point, extreme rated routes. I've lost about 7k points and the record of the effort, due to that. I didn't even game the system on them

Trainer road+new tyre
A couple of other odd things from the Winter Cup stage 2:
1. Have you noticed that whilst most people's rides are 25.5km, Pep Tache's and Flying Dutchman's (in 4th and 5th places) are showing as only 25.1 and 25.0 km?
2. First place ride is Alejandro weighing 71kgs, who's averaged 253.99 watts. In second place is Artanec who has done 377.88 watts - 124 watts MORE - but has still gone slower despite also weighing 9 kilos LESS at 61kgs. Can this just be down to drafting etc? Seems very odd to me to have so much lower watts whilst weighing so much more and still going faster?

They are inconsistant with their handling of the removal key. Some are just banished as if on a whim, where as others seem to be left alone against all logic 
.
Look at the results of the summer cup and the sessions used to get to the positions that were held in the end. I know a couple of my sessions were not totally legit, but were not done deliberately. The SW/FW and HW limitations allowed me a few advantages at the outer edge of the envelope. However I was always nearer the max resistance than most
.
But where there is an obvious issue something should be looked at/done
I demand it

Not sure that drafting would make such a big difference... more like a tow rope...
Edit: were they both on bkool pro's?
Yes, both on pros.
I've done a bit more digging. Going up the second incline about 8-9kms in, they both hold steady speed and watts for a bit. Alejandro who weighs 71kgs = 43kph for circa 280 watts. Artanec who weighs 62kgs = only 37.5kph for circa 460 watts!
Why would the lighter rider be going slower with way more watts?
Edit: Cadence virtually the same for both riders at this point too

Artanec forgot to unplug his machine after the previous day to reset the resistance?Yes, both on pros.

Just done stage 4 of the goats league i was the very first person to ride that, so had no one to chase I've done my best for you to chase.
The 3d profile doesn't match the gradient you would be riding on the flat but the gradient would be 12% so psychologically it seems hell of a lot tougher.
Results are stuck in the interweb AGAIN.

My aim as usual is to get within 2 minutes of your time. You seem to make these stages look so easy!

And im trying to perfect these fast starts that you do, so it's a flyer from the start line.

Oh no! That's the only way I can get half a reasonably close time to yours!
