That felt hard going today. Thanks AAAC for dropping back and giving me a tow back up to Bill with 3.5 mile to go - I was starting to struggle there. Still didn't have anything left for the final 500m though :blink:

Well done Bill - that was a strong finish :okay:

The KICKR certainly helped my climbing back in 2014/15, I came on much faster than with the Bkool Pro, which I think just didn't give enough resistance on the steep gradients, I could just over power the resistance and hence did not get enough of a work out.

Hopefully you'll find the same...

P.S. I think the very fact that you're willing to switch from a Pro to a KICKR and accept the inherent disadvantages shows you have your competitive side under control! :okay:
You're not kidding @gbrown !!! On the Pro in Bkool I could get up Alpe, Mont Vontoux, Col du Telegraphe and a few other big climbs. On the kickr, in BRVR I'm having to stop for breathers every 1km and tonight only made 35 mins, and 5 km, up a climb. Feels so much closer to what I'm like in the real world.

The Pro has got me fit, I need the kickr to get me fitter (how about that poetry :biggrin: )

Note to self: I must install a rear brake on my turbo bike. I fluffed the start because I was pedaling when the bell went (hadn't remembered that you have to stop) and then had to unclip and use left foot as a brake before it would let me start...

Family occupying all devices in the house so sneaked into my sons room and stole his gaming pc. He kicked me out after a few minutes with the words "I thought you were doing something important!":eek:

Saw that Gabor joined you. Now this guy would normally give you a run for you money AAAC. One of the best TT'ers in the world in his age group.
