@AAAC 76C I think you competed against pre-update @keithaitch ...I guess we’ll see if post-update Keith can match that performance. I hope not.

Yes, I have a stupid dust assisted time, I'll not be adding it as a ghost due tomorrow, it's demoralizing, I'll just be wheel sucking @perswe until 200m from the end.... Hopefully!

The last few days on the bKool website Routes Browser page, the panel on the left side with all the filters you use for searching for a route is blank. That is, no way to search by distance, difficulty, video, who made it, etc. Anyone else having that problem?

Mine is working fine.

Mine is working fine.

Fine as in “normal”, that is. It is still a VERY poor piece of programming which has needed a complete workover for years!

 

[Tomculb]

Yes, I have to agree with that. Oddly in my case, the problem is only on my Chromebook. I discovered that it works "normally" on my desktop at work (using Chrome) or my Android tablet.
Thanks

Thank you @keithaitch for you faith in me. I’m sure that will happen . Maybe on your second lap.

The really bad news is that in this league even the flat stages, if we ever had one! Are hard because you would get into a horrible dogfight with @perswe @Brusgaard and @BILL S which would leave you even more knackered. Welcome to hell,and even worse... Your can never leave!

Mmm

Just thought I'd throw some anxiety into the mix and see what results we get. I'll be there pulling for the big boys.

Tougher than in the real world! Just managed to hold off Iain but @AAAC 76C was well gone.

I noticed your best effort was 23 mins, 7 mins quicker than the pros in real life. I take it the new software has slowed you down?

 

[microkid]

That's a big difference with real life results....

 

[keithaitch]

Some epic battles developing.
Just 19 seconds separating 2nd,3rd and 4th @AAAC 76C @perswe and @Mark68
@BILL S and @Brusgaard locked in a titanic struggle possibly to the death and a fearsome fight not to be first in the broom wagon @Goldwolfie and @Bored Man ...where is @Randyberlin when you need him?

That or age.... Or lack of dust

 

[perswe]

First I thought this was going to be a weak effort, but then i felt pretty good after a few kms. Ended up with my strongest post upgrade effort. Perhaps I should have gone a little bit harder....anyway ...Kudos to me!

Great battle up in the front! @Mark68 you held on almost all the way! I struggled to not loose more than a minute.

@AAAC 76Cs it seems yourChristmas redecoration kept you in shape after all!
