And much more disturbing than that, the above quote says "Bill and Gail" on top.
Until you brought it up, I wasn't even going to go there.

Big fan of radio 6. Don't like everything they play but there's always something new and different. I find hip hop awesome to train to. Not a massive rap fan. But the beats seem to suit me much more than faster dance stuff which makes me peddle like duck on speed.

Good grief, drum and bass from Alfie and dance music from Breedon what on earth is going on here? Did the population of cyclechat suddenly get cool whilst my back was turned? Adam or Goldwolfie please return some decorum to this forum and let me know that you listen to the Brighouse and Rastrick brass band whilst pedalling!

Nursery rhymes for me!
Jack and Bill went up the hill......

Andy, I see you have a KICKR and until recently KICKR riders got no freewheeling and downhills were like flats so at least there is a move in the right direction.

I see you are 95kg so you will descend pretty quick compared with us lighter riders.

Do you accelerate immediately on a descent or do you acclerate slowly?

On my Classic I used to immediately go to my max slope speed but now with my Pro I accelerate to it,perhaps slower than reality.

I am suprised you get any blue speeds in a velodrome session as this should be only for slope transitions, steeper slopes and descents so that is an anomoly that needs reporting.

Just send an email to info@bkool.com

After a quick look on Strava I now realise why it is a bit quiet on here today, you have all been on your bicycles, in the outdoors, where there are bears and wolves and stuff!

In my case nursing the hangover from hell... Deciding to move from lager to tequila was my undoing last night

Our bears are still asleep..music is a great motivator. I have an old iPhone I leave on the bike with Bluetooth ear buds it has different play lists for climbs, rides, and races. Kipster had a post earlier and he listens to extra-terrestrial minimal surf-punk party music.

Who wants to be Jack today?

Mountain Goat League closing soon. Probably still open tomorrow but I'm heading up Oviedo Ciclismo (last stage) in 40 mins @ 5pm with 10 min warmup. Join me from the Live tab.

I need to ride it today but planned on this afternoon. But really as far as you're concerned the only difference would be a name below yours with an ever increasing time.

Yep out at 6.30 AM and did some strava segments that i can't do later due to the traffic, only 6 miles off from doing 300 miles this week did think about doing a goat stage later which is the night ride but not sure if I'll be able to make it.

Might slog my way through a mountain moose type ride this evening I think.

I'm not so sure it would be ever increasing Randy. I'm rather tired after a tough week so mostly just want to put in the ride. Anyway, Stig just did it at 60% effort so I should be able to better that. Anyone not doing it will get Stigs time +5%

That is very impressive!
