Ok, Who put the Col du portalet on the LeJog Route!!

BSim was playing up on the Cave of Pain Lappy, so I did and 'hours' ride in BRVR ... Take that BKool!!

48 minutes for the Portalet is quite reasonable I felt ... Cream Crackered now though

Ebaying for some new bars are you

good job i closed some of the others down !

 

[Whorty]

Sorry lads prob should have waited a bit longer till we were sorted.

I joined and couldn't tell if anyone had started. I rolled off the line to have a look and saw you over 2 mins up the road I chased hard but just couldn't pull you back.

I presume it's difficult drafting on the Kickr @Whorty? I was trying to get you in my draft but you kept popping out (so to speak)!

I was watching you and thought you were going to catch me but managed to hold on. So much harder on your own

 

[Whorty]

Yeah - I was feeling good at the start. Paid for it later though - once I lost yours and Bridgys wheel there was no way I was getting it back!

thanks for the little tow at the end. Problem was, every time I hit your draft I shot past you With 600m to go I went early for the sprint - I knew you'd catch me but hoped I'd then get in your draft and shoot past you again to claim victory, but I went too early Didn't have the legs at the end to hold the speed. I was pushing over 600 watts though (I think I maxed at about 680) and you still went past me

I worked hard to stay in front of @AAAC 76C and @bridgy as long as possible but as expected, they came through me and left me for dead

I held off @LBHIFI though by about 30 seconds .... you was clawing me back the whole race and I wasn't sure if I could hold on, but just about did

Yes. Even dropping the power a bit I was still shooting past, but as soon as I'd gone past you overtook me again. Not easy. That's why I went for the sprint - instead of buggering about until the line I thought I'd give you one last workout

 

[AAAC 76C]

Not according to my watch!

I'll have you know I have a radio clock in my pain cave and it was defo past 19:22

 

[Goldwolfie]

Sorry all as I couldn't find tonight's ride to lead off.

So I jumped onto BRVR for a steady ride - Amstel Gold Part 1. Good ride but I did miss that masses chasing me down.

Lets hope Bkool sort themselves out before Thursday - wishful thinking perhaps.

I'm not doubting that - unfortunately I couldn't see your radio clock though so had to rely on my watch!

@peterob .
Next time you log into BSim check your devices to make sure your trainer is linked up correctly.
If you haven't already uninstall BSim and clean your registry and then reload from http://www.bkool.com/en-GB/cycling-simulator

They are going the wrong way.

Can I ask what RGT is?

Cancel that, found it.

Graphics are a bit shabby!

Me too but perhaps he will join us now.
That and his brothers Dean and Russ as well

Excuses excuses.

Felt crap to start with today, like I should have done a recovery ride on Sunday.
None the less once we got the steam up I was OK.
You were strong today again, bit like Stage 1 on Saturday.
That @peterob would have been handy on Saturday in the TTT
