Team BKool CycleChat

[Randyberlin]

Check this out. I added the chat title to the name if the race. It does sound better than Rod’s cruel climb.

If allowed, I would be keen to try and hop on some of these races.

I've literally just last week signed up for some of the 'Muckers' races, which also unfortunately run every Thursday evening.
I think this week I might be able to squeeze in the CC ride at 18:00, but then the other race starts at 18:30, and is likely to be in excess of 90 minutes long, so I'm not sure if that is a good idea or not!

I wouldn't ask anyone to move things (especially not just for me), but I just wondered if it will always be the same time and day, or whether you might move stuff around at all?

I think first we will have to change the name of this chat. From Bkool to Rouvy.

That may take an admin. @Breedon are you an admin. You’re the second poster here in 2013

I propose to take it one step further. To weed out those not serious about joining the league I’m suggesting everyone who wants to be in the rankings sends an entry fee of $750. Please send it as a certified cashier check.

Seriously we will only list racers who have posted here.

No I’m not, we could get Shaun to change the name?

Join on the Saturday rerun. There are probably a few riders you could draft. If it you can put iin a time as a solo ride.

I’ll be there on Saturday Dan. I think there’ll be a few others too (Hopefully!). Historically the races have been relatively sparse compared to say zwift for example or the more established rouvy rides. So they can often turn into a bit of a personal TT anyway. I hope that doesn’t put you off though. I quite like just targeting the person in front whilst trying to stay ahead of the guy behind as a motivator to keep peddling.

Thanks Tommy and Randy - I've just found the Saturday rerun (I couldn't find it yesterday) and can see it is 17:00 uk time.
This weekend our daughter is away with Scouts, so we have a very rare weekend to do entirely what we want, so I think if I went on the 17:00 race I'd almost certainly be sleeping in the garage

I will keep an eye on the series though, and see what ones I can enter for if that is ok, as long as that doesn't mess anything up for you guys?

Welcome and nice to see a new face , hope to see you in a few races

If there’s only a few in the race don’t worry , we all sort of have a nemesis we try to beat while keeping an eye out behind , but sometimes your nemesis’s decide to get a motorbike or build a garage in the countryside and sit about - while the other defies the aging process and just gets quicker !

Think it’s worked for me.

Sorry about full page post…it’s been a while since I posted on here, not quite sure what I’m doing.

You should have highlighted the ‘02’ mate 😁

 

[Breedon]

I’ll be there at 6 so see you on the Battlefield I mean course 😁

Hey you fools. You’ll break your necks going that fast downhill.

Ooosh That was unpleasant. Thought it was 7pm start. Forgot how unsociably competitive I was. Which isn’t useful when you’re as unfit as I am.
I adjusted my time to my Garmin time as I started late. Would have just left it if I could make Saturdays rerun but I’m away so hope that’s ok?

Think I broke something.
