Hello. Just looked on Bkool site at tonight's route and yes I can see we did the same route . Weird though how it was run in a couple of different windows/areas or whatever it is. Quite happy with my time though

Anyone can start a route so you just joined the one that wasn't scheduled

@Mark68 looked at your ride in Bkool and yes same rides but different sessions, I guess so many people in it as they were looking for the featured ride too. I see Luismi won your session at 6.5w/kg and 40MPH, in our session Albert won it at average 120km/h and minus 200 million watts https://my.bkool.com/bkoolSessionHistory/showSessionSummary?sessionSummaryId=13974312

Couldn't help myself and looked at another from our session Javier in 2nd place managed 114RPM up the 20% incline, good work Javier have a crate of beer.

Best not to take the competition too seriously or maybe I'm bitter as I couldn't turn my pedals

Yes Luismi did very well. How did he do that?
Special powers I wonder.
114 rpm at 20% wow must be on.mtb gearing I wonder.

 

[Mark68]

😂😂😂😂 just had a look minus 2 million 😂😂what went wrong. Don't think I could get it to show that even if I wanted to

What was my rpm?

Looks like 50+ in Strava, you can see it under 'analysis', your bike must have better gearing than mine and I don't think I can adjust mine.
My road bike has 28t, I'd have got off and walked up that hill - would be faster.

Quiz night at 5pm today, I doubt it'll wrap up in time so might have to join the re-run on Saturday.

no it's the first of those options!I'm just glad that we have a group where everybody is on a level playing field, well 20% isn't exactly level!

was meant to be doing this race this http://classicadelsmurs.cat/llistat-temps-marxa-llarga-2019/ it's the catalan spring classic up 22 walls! and defending my age group win from last year, but it's obviously been cancelled. I change my castte to an 11-32T for it and was thinkinig of doing the same for this week's races, but I've left the 11-28T on an just get up out of the saddle and drive up the really steep bits!

Need a beer with the quiz.... No riding after beer.

 

[keithaitch]

Mur de Huy rerun done but only fast enough for one of the two beers I had last night in annoyance at the mechanical so no beer for me tonight irrespective of whether I manage to stay within a minute of @AAAC 76C or not and/or sprint past @perswe on the last little rise.

 

[Mark68]

Think I am going to suffer tonight. That's if I join at the right time / place etc
