No need to do it again, but @AndyMacca doesn't seem to be having as much luck!

Yep, same issue even though I had the dongle 1cm from the case, but these dropouts are giving me some good training. I'll have the 3rd attempt tomorrow. I tried the dark side to see if signal also dropped out on that but as they offer only limited free km's during the trial it wasn't a long ride and the signal held on for all of it so that was a bit inconclusive.
Interestingly my watch maintained an ant+ connection with the bike for all of the rides I did today. I think just to get it done I'll go back to my old laptop - shame it doesn't fit on my tablet stand though.

Think positive think positive....

Keith Would you like a live race off in the December Dash for the last stage? I see that it closes on Xmas Day and neither you nor I have done the last ride yet. I could do tomorrow some time. And of course anyboy else who decided to do this totally masochistic course. I nearly died trying to complete the stages yesterday and today.....

Yay! Thursdays stage done. Handlebars a bit cramped with a 17inch laptop on there but a small price to pay to go through all that pain again. No dropouts so I'll run with it like that for a bit. Beer and crisps on order.🍻

Stage 3 done 55 mins exactly

I done that today what a killer those 11% sections are, when I crossed the line you was a minute behind when I checked the league page you were 10 seconds ahead.

My NEO is also a time machine

Do what I have to do now, delete your ride in Strava, then export it from Bkool as a FIT file and reload back into Strava. This will give you the map, segments etc. You can then compare your ride to mine to maybe see what happened.

Does seem a bit bizarre that I was down in Bkool but up in the league - I copied Rod's ride and had his ghosts and these times were the same on screen as in the league. i wonder if you had an Ant+ drop out or something?

Or just change the strava from virtual ride to ride.

January's league published a bit of something for everybody, and a little bit of pain for all of us!

I'll try and do some rides in Jan but can't be 100% sure I'll complete all league rides so you might want to take me out of the team set up from Jan

@keithaitch just done stage 2 again with the video. Lovely scenery. After a good start though I tried to better my time, which was successful. Maybe a few day's rest after coming off my cx bike on a slippy main road helped. Wish I could go at that speed all the time!

Hope the bike didn't get hurt.
Merry Christmas everyone.
