i rode through the trunk of a couple of trees, did some off roading and rode through a load of sand dunes over the edge of the road,,,did you all get that as well?

It's a network issue. I installed the application on my Android phone, got the same failure. So not a Windows issue. Next step - turn off wifi on the phone, use the carrier's 4G LTE network. Bingo - sessions come up, I can load the scheduled and it begins.

I had a similar problem. On advice from this thread I got some powerline ethernet adapters. I have not had a disconnect or failure to launch a session, that was not bkool related (like thursdays chaingang session), since.

Worst one I ever had was on some silly hour 45 minute steep hill Goat ride, and my flipping laptop overheated with the end banner actually in sight..... I was furious...nearly cost me a new laptop. It just shut down and didn't record a sausage. It really shouldn't matter as the miles are still in the legs, but, it so does matter doesn't it?

There were time when the road looked like someone had laid it over the top of a bmx dirty track. My avatar was on occasions riding along in the air or with the wheels below the surface of the road. Although I can't remember any sand, trees or bears for that matter?

Looks like I missed a great race including bears and dogs?!?!? Anyone see Brad Pitt?

I am hoping to ride this tomorrow with a few ghosts. I will give some notice in case anyone wants to join in.

I'd need to do it tomorrow too but I also intend going out into the real world for a ride too! Not sure my legs will be up for both!

4pm sounds good.

I wonder how Bill's getting on? He'll still be cycling now.... I don't know how he does it!

ok ..tune in during the mid afternoon. Did a 60m fasted solo this morning @ 19.1 ave on an up/down rolling route round my way today. Well wobbly on the run in to home. Legs are feeling it now but will be ok for tomorrow. Ive got a busy day tmrw ..got to get some jobs done..Got a leak from the shower coming into the corner of the lounge...in my head I am an athlete...in reality I am anything but...reality bites.

Very impressive. I used to do the odd 31m fasted a few years back. Straight out and back. Hammered it out but did I suffer on way back. Never broke 1h 44 and never will now. Always looked forward to my chocolate milk on my return
I will warm up on Zwift before to get my knee working.
Rick, hopefully you can join us.
Adski,
I am a bit disappointed. If you change your mind.....

Hopefully Bill has paced things nicely and feeling as good as anyone one could given the sheer bonkers nature of the ride.

Didn't make the Chaingang at 5 as i was just getting in from a 74 mile real world ride, plan on doing a 50 mile ride tomorrow so it won't be till Monday that I'll be back on the trainer.
So I'll do the goat ride then.
