I can't take off work today so I just did today's ride and it was a slug ride. I really need a rerun on the weekend. We already changed for daylight savings so I can sleep in another hour.

Edit I typed my reply before read Geoff last post so it sounded like a response to his but I just meant to convey had a terrible ride this morning. I'm ok with no weekend ride.

Randy, when would you be available for a re-run, and when would be suit you best?

This is something I havent quite got sussed yet. is it possible to set-up a League run including Ghosts of those who have already done it. I know how to set-up runs with one ghost (from the league table I believe) but how do you include all of them?

Anytime on either day if there are others interested. But also like Blueface is saying I can race the ghosts from today's race. I need to move 9000 miles east to be in the same time zone.

Parents evening so i may struggle to get back and ready for 7 tonight.

I checked out your website. Very artsy black and whites. My wife is a photographer also but has it much easier because she shoots bears not brides or kids.

I can't find a way to do this, I don't think it is currently possible! You can challenge a single result, and you get that ghost and any ghosts that person included, but it does not seem possible to then add other league results, or indeed any other ghosts, without stopping it being a league session.

It could work like a chain, where the second person challenges the first, then the third challenges the second, and the fourth challenges the third, etc.

That way all the riders that had currently ridden would be in each subsequent challenge, but everyone would have to co-ordinate who they challenged.

I guess if we got in the habit of always challenging the previous results (so long as it was the result with the most previous ghosts in it) then we would routinely build up sessions with multiple previous results in them.
So anyone riding a solo league session should be encouraged to ALWAYS challenge the most recent previous challenge!

OK, just off to get ready for 7pm Chain Gang, I'll try and start at 7:00 and will end the warm-up with just under 2 minutes to go, as normal (so make sure you stop pedalling by 2 minutes to go).

Used advanced filter and look for "Chain" or "Gang" then when you join the session make sure you see "Geoff" in the list of riders ...

Session is called

Vuelta 2012 E15

Thanks man, I only do it part time - work in front of a computer in a school all day long (finance, website, DTP work).

I've done three weddings and taken on one more for a work colleague - then I'm definitely doing no more. Too stressful - mainly stick to family groups now. Shooting bears? Thats a bit different and preferable to screaming kids!

 

[Randyberlin]

Wow. Looking at the results it must have been a great race today.

 

[RickB]

Was a good one for sure. The usual suspects cleared off from the start, but Rayvon, myself and some other randomer duelled it out for the middle section of the course. Bit of drafting as well which was nice!

@Rayvon - really pushed me hard there. I think thats the most knackered I've been finishing a course yet. You'll get me next time no doubt!

I thought I was out of that one! You guys roasted me to start, monopolising on my renowned flat ground weakness. Geoff, you are just getting stronger and stronger.
And Bill? Wrong sort of wind? Hay fever?

Edit: better check it was nothing serious before I take the p*ss actually! You are ok Bill? Not like you?

 

[gbrown]

Brutal!

I was really cooked then Geoff, you were at a helluva pace. Kipster was on fire too, till someone plonked a hill in his way!

 

[kipster]

Really, really enjoyed that, really please with the power, shame I got under 30 minutes as it wont count to a fitness upgrade Geoff you had a great ride, I thought I might catch you but no chance and Adam well played.

Bill I thought you'd stopped for a comfort break and were going to hunt me down but then you disappeared so hope all is ok?

You guys took off so fast, I had no hope of keeping up, until it got hilly. But even then, found you all really hard to catch!
And as for you Geoff, I'll have what your having...that was more than a Snickers!
