Team BKool CycleChat

Oi, don't go tempting riders away from the Handicap with your siren calls....

I have been thinking of trying a Handicap run at 7pm, as the 8pm numbers have not got anywhere near enough for a Team TT. When I did the survey earlier I found that most people preferred the 7pm slot, but could do 8pm, but just a few guys couldn't make 7pm so I left it at 8pm. I would really like to get the numbers up a bit so we could try a few TTT.

How about if I start the Handicap at 7pm tonight, as a trial?

Geoff

Must admit that 7 pm suits me better, especially with us being 1 hour ahead over here.

I'm out of the Bkool rides as the kickr snap just give me blue speed numbers all of the time. I'll be hiding over on TrainerRoad for a while and maybe the occasional zwift ride. i will keep up to date with this thread as it is a fun place to be!

I hate bkool!
Just tried to ride. Program tells me I am running it on another device. I am not. Take option to close down other and run new one. Seems ok then bkool collapses. 3 attempts to run software produce error messages saying unknown problem and bkool hangs. Reboot. Remove program. Download and reinstall following reboot. 4 attempts and same error message. I really do not have time for this. Off to Zwift...

Hi Geoff, I was hoping to have a go at the handicap race tonight at 7PM - is there a chance you could slot me in a start time?
Sorry for the late notice.

@Benh no problem, your Start Time is 8 minutes 45 seconds elapsed!

The next Handicap Chase is Pico Peñas de Dios

Next run is 7pm (plus Start Time) tonight, Tuesday 17th January 2017.

Start Times (Handicaps) are as follows... (when underway time equals or exceeds the given Start Time).

If anyone else wants to take part, can they let us know a competitive time for the stage, or failing that their fitness level and who they usually finish close to.

 

[bobinski]

Right. Turned off Bluetooth on pc and bkool works. Geoff am I still 10-30?

 

[bobinski]

Yep

10-30 then.

Come and get me big boys!

Damn, if i'd known you was changing the time I'd have been there tonight, but i've just finished dinner and risk being sick now. 8 is too late for me for sure but 7 (if i'm not working late) is much better.

 

[BILL S]

thanks for joining the ride aaac. didn't know you were there until just before you passed me.

Oh yeah - weird??!!

Didn't see the Handicap rescheduled time until too late to join in.

I'll have a bash at 8pm as my tea should have settled by then.

BTW 7pm will be fine for me in the future.
