Team BKool CycleChat

Amazing, I thought BKool had improved their app and made it more equal for all trainers, apparently not, yesterday evening I
did a ride on BKool using the ghost of a friend of mine that I sold my BKool Pro to a couple of months ago, he weighs a few kg
more than me, on the BKool Pro he rode a time of 33:30 at an average of 207 watts whereas on my Wahoo Kickr
I also did a time of 33:30 but had to push an average of 244 watts, which makes racing a Kickr against the BKool trainer near impossible.

Yep. Sounds about right. I had the same when I switched to a kickr.

You could try the v4.2 beta of the simulator, as I have seen quite a few people having problems connecting via ANT+ with version 4.1x. PM me for link.

Be aware that the beta runs on different servers, so you can only race with/against others using the beta!

Many thanks, tried it this am, but no difference, 3 computers, two phones, 3 softwares looks like it is a dud trainer.
Thanks all for support and help

I think I also won't make the re-run. As I've already done it I think I'll try and unstick myself from the WC.
(No I'm not stuck in the loo)

I'm stuck on stage 5

My first time back on the bike this morning in 2 weeks. Don't expect to put in a good time but will start the slow climb back to poor shape from miserable shape. One weird thing the antibiotics have made my back feel better. I thought it was a coincidence but a Danish study showed 50% of the people with herniated disc have a bacterial infection.

 

[BILL S]

So someone else please start the re-run.

I'll probably start my WC stage 5 attempt at 4pm ish seeing as it takes 2 hours

And I need to do more time on the turbo as my riding to work is about to stop, so I need to do two leagues at least.
Interesting about the antibiotics. Do you think this implies/proves that herniated discs are/could be caused by infection?

We're down in't coyle 'oyle
Where't muck slarts on't winders

Where't muck slarts on't winders

No. They said when the disc gets damaged new blood vessels form to help heal and expose it to a common bacteria that everyone has in their system. The study said 50% of the tissue from people with disc surgery tested positive. I only posted it here because I'd never heard of it and my back hasn't felt this good in a year.
