Rick/Bill, i could set it up but i dont plan on racing as im out on a club cycle in the afternoon - can i set it up and just spectate?

Absolutely. You'll have to pedal through the warm up and then once the session has started you can quit out of it.

hey guys, got a Bkool this week and looking to join the various groups here.

My fitness levels are a bit dire at present, but I assume this is ok!? in relation to this does anyone have any other groups they would recommend a beginner to join? Also fave rides/routes they can recommend?

I wouldn't worry about your fitness levels, I'm not that fit and still have a ball on the rides

Here you go Bert:
Chaingang - flatter courses which can be completed any time of the week but with as many as possible meeting Thursday at 7pm for a group ride/race. Very entertaining (and exhausting !!) Suitable for all fitness levels!

I hope to make the rerun today. Thanks Irish Al for offering to set it up. Anyone else going to be there?

I was going to join the race but had an off this morning, a few cuts and bruises and some stiffness in the left arm and leg. Think I'll take it easy for a couple of days.

 

[Randyberlin]

That's too bad. I hope your bike is OK.

I may make the rerun, not feeling 100% today Not helped by a morning out in the wind and rain building a CX course

It looks like I'll be seeing some new faces behind the front guys. Since the change to a new unit, I have noticed a drop in avg. watt. I max out at about 30 watt less on steep sections, but it gets worse the closer I get to flat. At 1-2 % I would say that I've lost about 100 watt.

The bike is fine, just a couple of scratches on the brake levels, but a little bit of black nail polish and they'll be as good as new.
