Not likely. Your avg. power is better than mine - you just need stay in the draft! No offence @Randyberlin, but even with you on form, you still would be no match for @Duckman. Maybe in the days when we used the BKOOL Pro trainer (like Winni today) with its random boosts of power in some rides.

No offense taken. My goaI is get back to mid level performance. This league is incentive to ride. Ill see if we can't get a few more normal riders like Soarer v8 who I see back in Bkool and a couple of my friends.
Then the normal people can push each other like you freakishly fast guys do.

I think my limiting factor might be that I'm out of great Scotch, so reward drink is not as enticing. Taking recommendations for tasty ones to try.

I will try to steer clear of alcohol for the time being. Too bad I have some nice beer in the fridge, just begging me to drink them... We shall see who wins and when!

Close at the top of this week's stage. Imagine if they had all been in the same race.

Wow, you Danes know how to target on the visit Denmark emails. I accepted the cookies and rewarded with the Fastelavn pastry.

I disagree putting a recycling center ahead of pastries.

Yeah, these days I eat more pastries than visits to the recycling center. The daughter works at bakery outlet, and often bring home unsold pastries, that would otherwise be thrown out.
We now have 3 different garbage cans, each separated into 2 halves, making us sort the trash for recycling easy, and they get picked up and emptied around every 2-3 weeks, saving us most trips to the recycling center. But after cutting the hedge, we have to go there. Would be easier with them fences!

We have to take ours to a lot that has different containers for cardboard cans and plastic. They are then shipped to Washington State. With all the Amazon boxes its mind boggling how fast a city of 8500 can fill them .

I have enjoyed various offerings from Port Charlotte, until the remaining options became fearfully expensive. My favourite is though Lagavulin. Any of which should give you some extra impetus!

@Rod McG Many thanks, purchase and enjoyment shall commence.

@Rod McG Aha! Rummaging around in basement "wine cellar" I found this unopened 2016 tasty bottle. Due to current insane pricing I'll hold for our 30th anniversary next year on Jan 15'th, and grab that 16 year old Lagavulin as I love the smokey flavors they offer.

I googled the Lagavulin that @Rod McG recommended to see the price, and wow! You better keep that now 25 year old stuff under lock and key.

 

[Duckman]

It's crazy stupid. Great Whiskeys and Bourbons that used to be what I thought was expensive are now going for prices for a dram that are 3 times what a bottle cost 10 -15 years ago. Johnny come lately folks likely just buying what ever cost more and driving general prices out of sight.

Tried to join yesterday's stage of the day. It was meant to run at 1pm and 6 pm Spanish time. I joined at around 16:55 UK time and it had been running for over an hour. I dont know how to catch the start!

I did it a little after 6 am my time and it was a constant stream of riders. It seemed like a few joined every minute.
