I wanted to see the profile of a route so saved it to favorites and then scheduled and it came on sim, obviously without ghosts.

I couldn’t get my favourites up earlier. Progress? The closest I got to riding the stage was manually choosing it from the search screen. But then it didn’t load.
It is fekking annoying. I’ve got Sunday’s for trying to get this done really. So that this week lost.
No doubt they’ll have the BKOOL turd nicely polished just in time for the actual cup. Just so long as 3 or more people don’t try and observe
Ahhhh I feel a little bettter now...
No wait...
Fuuuuuuuuuck Youuuuuuuuu
Bkool Programmers!!!!!!
Yep, that’s better.

Rouvy looks pretty good. I suggest we all take advantage of their 2 week free trial and report back. I can't find leagues but we have already found a way round that in terms of recording. @JJRobinson to save us all doing the investiagtion and as you seem to know most about rouvy, do you know if we can ride together, even if it isn't in an organised league and then record times elsewhere? Also what do you see as the benefits of bkool, when it works, over rouvy, so we know the things we would lose and can think of how to get round them.
Better still join Zwift race with a few others and enjoy a reliable setup. Even handicap races could be done I reckon with riders just sitting on the start line for their start slot..

OK, just managed to do a BKool session. I couldn't get any of my favourites / scheduled rides showing, so I just picked something that was live and had a bunch of other riders on, and that worked fine. (Kalvebod x2 - nice actually, with the screen right in front of me I could almost pretend there was sunshine).
However, BKOOL - how to lose friends/customers and alienate people... I wasted so much f**g time this morning trying to get it working.

I might be the only one using an Apple mini to run Bkool and Zwift but it looks like Rouvy doesn't run on it.

Sorry for any typos, the wine in Spain falls mainly on the english cyclist.

Well there's nothing like a cock-up in the BSim to make this forum busy.
Decided to try and do a WC ride myself tonight but experienced all of the problems everyone else did.
Ended up doing 75 km of the Wattenfel Classics, whatever it is called.
Never have I been so glad for the Sim to crash on me after just over and hour and just under 50 km.
I was well and truly boll@ckst.
My subs are due on 3/3/18 so I must remember that.
