Just join the Flanders Classics rides at the top of the simulator. Always lots of riders, at least between 4 pm and 8 pm UK.
I am already, they should implement to always have a featured ride everyday though. I did the Monday live velodrome and enjoyed. I was in a group drafting each other for the 1st 8k then the must have ramped up as I still had the same speed but got dropped!

Oh I get it now. Back when the BKOOL calendar was used it had events from all of the different groups under the USA it ended up being very cluttered for me but it was nice to see what else was scheduled for any given day. I’m sure they could reactivate it.
Yup. That what I mean. There are a lot of groups riding on Bkool, but there is no way to find them all. A central calendar would be very welcome.

Totally agree. I don't know but I think they may have a limit of around 60 cyclists per session. When I started riding there were only 3 riders in the available session so I did 10 minutes in another ride and when I came back there were 25 cyclists and it had grown to around 60 when I finished. I hope they keep this format. It would be nice if in addition to the individual ride rankings they produced a cumulative one so there was Flanders league.

I'll be starting it tonight, hopefully without incident and with us all able to see each other. I really enjoyed riding with @AndyMacca after the main ride last week and if anybody wants to join in a social non drop drafting ride after tonight's league ride then I'll be doing stouby sejet and will happily set the pace until the last 2kms when we can have some sprinting fun. I'll wait around and start it 10 minutes after I finish the league ride or when everybody is there. Good idea?

Just in time before tonight's ride here's the monthly newsletter...https://s.docworkspace.com/d/AFrmZInpxq8ag9OomJKdFA
See you all later.
Good newsletter Keith, thanks for taking the time with it and the league. It's a shame about the teams, it was a good idea but we still have the league right.

And we'll always have Paris. Seriously though, if say @Randyberlin rejoined next month and we thought, on reflection that in fact the team sheet does have value then I'll happily resurrect it.

Ahh! Race against time. Hope there is no upgrade
