Team BKool CycleChat

[<Tommy>]

I’m going to be on the atom tonight so it’s a bit experimental. And I just want to spin really. I’m tempted to join after a couple of minutes or so if that’s ok Geoff. That way I should finish in time to put my daughter to bed.

Didn't know the Atom worked on Bkool

Well, bkool gave me 30 days premium for free yesterday I am almost tempted to join and screw up the start as I seem to do a lot in the past. But I have a frigging ear infection in both ears so below par anyways. I think that means I can watch and possibly hurle abuse, sorry, encouragement, on the roadside so keep your eyes open

Go on, come and join us, you know you want to

BTW, I'm in the big smoke today so should be back in time, so long as there are no more gas leaks and my trains aren't buggered up

Please can we confirm the earliest starters tonight, as I'll compress the Start Times so the earliest intending to join in starts at 0:00, to keep the others spinning on the Start Line for the minimum of time. @theboxers Simon, @Londonbg, @threerock44, Steve, @Randyberlin, @Jim Brown

Thanks,

Geoff

I'm planning to ride tonight. I'm off at 4:00 minutes.

And I've given myself an extra handicap by riding Stage 6 of the Winter Cup this morning!

How's that for an early excuse?

I think it should. I tried briefly before and failed but I think that may have been me being a dope.

 

[theboxers]

Ah man. I was hoping You could pull me until I fell off.

It's on the list of Bkool compatible trainers if connected by Ant+ (for what it's worth!)

NC stage 2 45.58

I challenge Tommy's ride with Paul and JJ there as well. Steve(joined in not sure if he is cyclechat) Blistering start, as usual. I held Tommy's wheel for the first climb but eventually lost it and was 10 seconds down at the crest, I caught him on the descent but again lost him and this time he pulled a significant lead, which was 1 minute at the start of the main climb. Paul was nearly a minute behind me. Tommy's lead grew to 2mins for the first part of the climb but as it became shallower I was able to bring it back to 30secs only for it to go back to over a minute by the time he crested the main climb. I pushed hard on the descent before the final climb to reduce the deficit to 50seconds. Tommy again stretched his lead on the early part and I regained a little before the line. Stupid Watts again. Tommy your time wasnt so ridiculous as you thought.

 

[Randyberlin]

Wow Randy, is your house high enough from sea level? News says tsunami risc in your area.

Our house is safe up on a mountain side, but I spent 3 hours at work last night waiting for the wave. My response is supposed to move equipment above the 3rd floor. Luckily no wave.
