Hi, Looking to join under the name Paul Richards.
That was a tough course!! - the usual view of Lars and Bill cycling off into the sunset - Darryn was pushing me hard but must have had a technical. he was destroying me on the climbs!
Good on Rob for persisting and finishing strong.
Hi Paul, you'll be more than welcome - just look for the group Cycle chat mountain goats.
Hope this link works!http://www.bkool.com/group/show/75682
Sorry guys. That was a bit tougher than I'd planned. Next time more flat bits I promise. Or someone else feel free to pick the ride.
Good turn out considering it being the first communal ride of the season. That first hill was a killer and Lars just wore me out on it, then on the last part of the last hill he tricked me into thinking I could catch him
. That's what I get for my comment on the previous page I guess 
.
As Rick said, we done for persisting Rob. You'll get a good race when more join in.

Big kudos to Rob, I would've stayed and given motivation but was melting.
I lost loads of time and speed messing up gear changes on the significant gradient changes, out of Bkool practice I think, great workout though, it's good to be back, and have plenty of carrots ahead of me to focus on.
Edit, fitness level is 0.36w away from Active 1
That's strange. I could have sworn I entered "chat".
Anyway, I had a mechanical failure and a puncture on the last hill. The hill leveled out a bit, and I couldn't use the big chainring. You were getting pretty close there. Lucky for me the flat section was only temporary, or you would have gone past me.
It was a toughie, well done for sticking with it, you will benefit from the big efforts.

Well it was that or Ventoux. Wait til you read the description of Huez stage 1. then you'll know that what you said above is true
Well done for sticking with it. Pity there wasn't more people in to make more of a race for you.
You'll get stronger every ride though if you keep making that sort of effort!
Just keep an eye on your average watts and see how it gets better each ride!
50+ minutes of pain!Well it was that or Ventoux. Wait til you read the description of Huez stage 1. then you'll know that what you said above is true
very true words!
