Team BKool CycleChat

Shoulder is aching today, I blame work, so I'm looking for a drafting partner. Any offers?

Point of note to bear in mind ahead of tonight's Chaingang ride

Last night I got a Bkool Simulator update request, so it may be worth allowing a bit extra time to upgrade

I'm going to have to pass on tonight's ride too chaps. Bit of a mad day. I'm going to do it tomorrow instead.

Best of luck Rick and Andy

And they are supposed to be rolling out a big update mid April as well.

Hi Rick, I didn't realise there was more than one. Cyclechat Top 100. I'm enjoying using Bkool but its a bit dull doing your own thing.

I think it's really the Handicap league and the Chaingang League that you need to join. Just request and we'll keep you right. Tonight at 7pm for the Chaingang and a rerun at 5pm Saturday. To find it in the Live tab just search chain or gang in the filtered search and it should come up. No more bkooling alone

Let the panic and frustration begin.

I am afraid that I am on the road back from a visit to Wattisham (near Ipswich) and I am in Fleet Services right now having a coffee so I can't see me making home by 8 let alone 7. I'll see anyone doing the re-run on Saturday.

Pop round and use mine

Thought I'd update my tablet whilst drinking my cuppa:

Improvements:
- Live section loading has been fixed.

Was there a Live section loading problem?
If there wasn't there probably will be now!

Thanks for the offer but I think her lady ship may not take it too well if I was another hour late for tea.

PS: Noticed today that there is an article on Oakley Pedalers in Cycling Weekly.
That's from your neck of the woods I see.

The club I'm with, haven't got a copy yet.

I've opted for a fresh air ride tonight, not feeling great and certainly would of struggled in bkool land. Will be sneaking in as a spectator and writing some words of encouragement on the road

Sorry folks, just not feeling the Bkool love today. Been doing some really crappy work, with lathe and plaster dust everywhere. Sore throat, banging headache and just not feeling the need to suffer anymore this evening.
I am hoping to get caught up with my Chaingang sessions by the end of the weekend but have a ton of other stuff to get done too.
Need to get time in the saddle really too, got stuff coming up that I need to be prepared for....

OK, so there's a bit more to drafting with faster riders than getting a good start! I stuck with you @BILL S and @LBHIFI but once you pulled away just a small gap I just couldn't stay with you - you were a frustrating few seconds ahead of me for a while! Great riding though and thanks for the drafting while it lasted - I'm exhausted now

Well you did what you needed to do to up the anti a notch. Just as discussed earlier today. Well done. We were going just as hard (if not quite as fast) as if AAAC was there so don't think for a minute that it was a one off. And you took your turn as the tow truck .
Well done LB. I was rather knackered at the end so had to let you go. Good race though. really enjoyed it.
And a pretty good turnout considering...

Ok not sure what caused it, bsim or pc, but it crashed on me after about 1/2 a mile . Can one of the mods add some minutes to my time, I jumped in at about 1/4 of a mile on my second attempt I think, then approve the time please .
