Having an afternoon beer was always going to be a bad idea before the bike! Should have stuck with the beersand put the feet up.

When I finished it showed you ahead by 3 seconds on the leader board but now Bkool shows you behind. Better ride it again to test it out.
I noticed at the start no more stacking up, 3 rows of riders. Nice.

I had to queue forever at the tip today so missed the start and to be honest was quite glad too - feeling very lazy. I spectated rather than join in late and saw you zooming ahead and assumed you'd crush my time but as a spectator it didn't show the ghosts. I expect sans beer or with accurate ghosts you'd have no problem blowing it away. Anyhow I'm claiming a win even if only for today

How many more EOS for downhill stages ??? It's rather Ironic as in real life I descend like a kamikaze Nibali and despite my wight disadvantage on Friday I did get 201/14216 on the local biggest descent here. This, when added to my climbing skills, gives me a huge advantage, until we get onto the flat when I'm like a duck in treacle! Couldn't bkool add a descent quotation based on your strava descent times to make it more realistic?

I'm a chicken on descents, wearing out the break pads.... If it was straight I'd hammer it but I have no skills in cornering and like the skin on my knees

I don't have nerve enough to go over 35 mph in the real world. I once wiped out on a brand new blacktop road outside of Las Vegas when I hit a leftover chunk of asphalt I didn't see. I was already gun shy about high speeds on skinny tires. . On Bkool I have no problem going 50 mph.

I forgot that @kipster recommended a program called handbrake to change the video setting to match the Bkool requirements.
Edit: You've inspired me to try again. I'll be firing up the laptop and swearing all afternoon. Beats doing chores.

Hi folks, I hope you’re all fine..
Just a short note to inform those amongst you who cycle in the Tour CycleChat Group, that I am not renewing my subscription right now (due this week). I am not using it at all much these days however, will probably return later in the year with a new Tour.
Keep in touch with yourselves
