Hi.
It sounds like you had fun this evening!
I'd like to try the chaingang league, maybe do the route on Saturday at 5 pm. Could you please sigh me up?

The new update seems to me to be an improvement. I still cant get the videos to work so I rely on 3D, which is now looking better. I am going to try a faster graphics card tomorrow to see if that helps. If its better, I'll let you know.
Thanks,
Rod

="Add, post: 4129243, member: 39778"]It does annoy me that they put all that chuff over the screen in warmup. I like to see what people are wearing.

Instead I have to read a set of instructions on how to change the view, that I know ALREADY! Or watch a bloody great big timer countdown!

But we've all seen your kit colours and prefer to have it covered up

Curse you Monte with your new fancy steel carbide bicycle. You pushed me far harder than I wanted to go. Now I have to take a quick shower go back to work and suffer all afternoon. Great race everyone. Cjbon you need to use a much slower bike.

Very different speed on the last steep down hill... no chance the Virtual speed is working!

Baldo Mero = 23.5
Monte = something like 65 mph!

Blimmin thing crashed just before the deciding bit of the stage!!!!

just coming up to the big climb 1hr 20 in and . No movement, no timer running, stuck. Tried to get the task manger up gone. Sorry your computer has a problem, we are collecting data and will restart.

Chuffit, off for something to b̶eat.

Crashed on me too on the climb

I think its just a PC thing for me. I normaly make a point of maximising and minimising the screen every now and again to let the PC know I am still using the App. I was pretty engulfed in the race with Jacob.
I couldn't work out if he was playing with me or not but I decided there was no point in me backing off as I did earlier in the stage as he would only fly past me again. We were just approaching that smaller climb before the 'cliff' and I was just getting ready to dig in then bamm the blimmin thing crashed.
I was realy in a hard place but at the same time in a groove.

Sorry Randy but my bkool is off being fixed so using the old man's set up and emailed the company and they said at least another 10 days so until then the red s works it is

Here's a thing - I watched jamie go down that last steep hill on the Elite Realtour and he was hitting high 60's. No blue numbers but he was hitting around 180- 200 watts and the speed was there. Must ask him to ease off on a hill and see if it holds the high figures.

EDIT:: Geoff beat me to it - see above screenshot for proof!!
