Rode Alp duez this afternoon and got myself a PB of 1hr 11 mins Previous best was 1hr 12mins and this was with the old firmware where it cruised at 10kph on anything above 10%. My fitness may not have improved as much as the likes of @Goldwolfie or @rob01792 but I have definitely gained some fitness

Quite enjoyed the climb. Looking forward to the challenges of the goat league

OK, I'm looking for suggestions for courses suitable for this months Handicap Chase, probably flatish with the ocasional gradient to shake things up, nothing too steep uphill or downhill, available in 3D and preferably not too many glitches.

I'm thinking any such stages from the last few Chain gang leagues would be good, as we would have decent timings with which to calculate the Handicap times.

Anyone who has ridden them care to suggest the most suitable ones?

Thanks,

Geoff

Well done whorty, that's a very decent time.

Is the goats league starting soon?

Is it rather sad of me that im getting excited at the thought of the goats league.

Whorty knocking a minute off your previous time is not to be sniffed at so well done.

Your performance seems as good as ever with the new trainer AAAC. Does it feel any difference? Although you may prefer to wait until you punch in your correct weight before commenting.

Remind me Bill, what do I have to do for the Velodrome ride as i am over an hour down in the league thanks to Runar's little mistake.

You need to do a fullish, , run up the col de madeline stage one so @BILL S can edit it with the correct time .

Edit sorry I'm getting confused it only needs to be 20 or 30 min sorry seconds

Well it hasn't started yet but Runar and Breedon have tried to fire it up on their own.

I'm really looking forward to it too. I'm never going to be the quickest up the hills but I really enjoy them all the same.

Which is all very well in theory until you realise that it's not possible to apply a negative to the ride time. Therefore, keen as some are to put in a full(ish) Madeleine run, I really would recommend that it is a maximum of the same time as your velodrome ride time.

My pb was a sawtooth effort . Stiil hurt like blazes and is part of the reason I am not looking forward to stage 6

AAAC, just do a 120 lap ride in the velodrome. Easiest way to set that up is to challenge someones ride from the league. Then from your league tab put in a 20 second or so ride up Col du Madeleine and save it. Let me know what you velodrome time is and I'll get it into the results. If Col du Madeleine is not in your league tab, use the copy button in the league results page.
