There's a thing. How do you decide which routes to use in the league. Is a previously rode one or one from Bkool?

I've really struggled trying to get a video with GPS uploaded, but keep getting declined by Bkool. Says the GPS data doesn't match the video. That's even when I started both video and Garmin at same time.
I have managed to get one turned into a 3d route though.

I use a Garmin Virb camera with built in GPS but am such a sloppy rider they aren't good enough. Some of the other cyclechat dudes have great videos. Under the sessions tab click on video and put in Aleman @Aleman or Geoff @gbrown or Paul @PaulF. Or click on the map tab and look around.

That's the mystery of the admins. I've been thinking about trying to bribe Bill S or Keith to make them all downhill but now Shimceltic is even beating me there.

I better either go out to the shed and put in a ride or get to the chores I've been avoiding all morning. See you guys in Bkool.

Do a few of bored man's rides... 30 min short sessions

I was looking a getting a virb elite camera with inbuilt GPS ,but I have the standard one that connects to my edge 820.
When I start the Garmin computer it starts the camera or visa versa so GPS and video should be tied together but still won't work.

They are perfect, do 1 have a 5 min break then get stuck in again

Rain!? If I wanted rain I’d ride in Sitka. Of course it’s inFlorida so probably warm rain.

I always turn off real weather due to riding in the dark and rain.. it is nice to see the snow on the tops sometimes though.. 🌨⛈🌧❄️

I thought I did stage 1 and 2 but did 6 and 2 so as a result in in 4th place in stage 6!

With real Weather do you get headwind affecting the resistance. It feels like it sometimes when on the flat...or it could be my legs being rubbish

No, you have to activate "Wind" in the Settings before starting the session to get head- or tailwind. RealWeather is on by default, Wind is not.

Ok, but how about if the host of the route has wind selected to on then would it stay on? Just curious
