Hats off to all you hardcore cyclechaters, i had a wake up call tonight. At one point I was questioning whether I had the legs to finish.

Goldwolfie pushed me hard at the beginning then disappeared - what's that all about, lol

My god that was hard, the start left me gasping. I knew if I could hold on till the first hill I might complete the ride. Holiday training is no preparation for Bkool chaingang events. Glad I did it, will sleep well and hopefully get body back on UK time tomorrow

Nightmare start

Just couldn't get it to pair for some reason. Still nothing a bit of swearing and jumping about didn't solve!

Bill or Rick, I think you may need to confirm my ride as I've made the cardinal sin of losing weight mid league.

Finished lol ! No idea where I come ?

One thing how do I view other riders then , couldn't see anyone or was I to far behind ?

I did every so often see a white cyclist image appear top centre but that was it , also lost the screen view & could only see the course image on the bottom of the screen , not sure what happened there either ?

1st ever BKool ride & quite enjoyed it
Not sure why that would have been - only time I've had similar is when my subscription expired. Do you definitely have a paid subscription and you logged in on the correct account?

Yes fully paid up member , think I might of had "solo" set hence why I couldn't see any others just changed it now & selected show other riders in video , guess I'll get the hang of it with time just a but frustrating to start with

Tommy. On my ride it says you didn't complete ride fully? I didn't see everyone tonight. Monte, tiny, Goldwolfie were invisible to me. Unless they were in a different ride? I had slight panic when bsim failed to upload ride and then sat there for a minute or so before doing the usual `upload with next login`

I was chasing @Goldwolfie and using my fw advantage up that 'kin lump and doing quite wel when he vanished :cursing:. Didn't totally lose heart, but knew I'd be stuffed without a good target to aim for. @TurboTommy and darren, I think, went past and that was it. I just went going backwards.

Well done Bridgy. You gave the rest of us a good kicking. I couldn't stay with you so thought perhaps we could reel you in if I teamed up with Rick. Well we tried, but I think it wasn't flat enough and we didn't make enough watts.
Can't say I like the new software. I struggled to see what was going on and it didn't even show average watts. And I couldn't even see who had joined the ride during the warmup. Nice and modern looking but not very functional.
Dead stops are still there. :angry:

You need to press the up arrow on the keyboard to show the averages

Yeah sorry about that Bill but I could only just stay with you and wasn't any help really. I was only slowing you down! :blush:

Enjoyed the race though. Great going bridgey! :notworthy:
