It is good on the big screen, just make sure you have the screen low enough though. I used my tv on the wall and after an hour my neck was killing me. Your natural sighting angle on a bike is normally pretty low.
I'm open to that idea Adam. I had already considered leaving the rides open a bit longer as even I'm even struggling to fit in the last stage here due to other commitments! What does everyone else think? Will it take away from the league in any way or just increase the competitive spirit? I remember in the bkool summer league replaying some stages just to gain some more seconds to overtake guys in the table! Was good motivation!
Maybe we ought to try a one of special where we assign a team with a couple of quicker riders and someone nearer the Back and get them to tow the slower rider to the end with only the third time counting. Would be a good way of teaching people (like me) how to draft.I'm open to that idea Adam.

On the subject of the chaingang league I'd like it to be as level a playing field as possible regardless of what trainer you use.
Suggestion:
Some guys on kickrs have been struggling with the off the line explosion from us Bkool users, so maybe we could have a gentleman's agreement to have a more sedate start keeping to what we know would be our average watts or thereabouts. Maybe too hard to implement. I know we talked about it before - maybe it wouldn't make that much difference. How much do you think a kickr user loses from the start?
Similarly the on/off technique should be avoided during league sessions.
Just ideas to even things out and encourage more teamwork making it more like real racing. Best sessions ive had were the ones where ive teamed up and drafted with 1 or 2 others.
As i said, we want as level a playing field in the league as far as possible.
What says the masses???
I do realise of course that this message is just a thinly veiled attempt by me to get towed along a course.
couldn't possibly comment on kickrs vs bkool on start as doesn't really affect me as selfish as that soundsI'm open to that idea Adam.
