Zwift Chaingang/Weekly Race

[T.M.H.N.E.T]

Gauge of interest lads and ladies for a weekly Zwift ride, I'd look at using a night or afternoon that isn't currently used for Team Cyclechat Bkool (Thursday + Saturday)

And something along the lines of

Name change: Addition of a "CC" tag to your name to allow easy grouping from the ride with menu on startup

Kit: Not everyone will have the basic kits unlocked (ie: the bumblebee stripe kit) so it would be preferable to use a kit available from an unlock code like the Global Cycling Network one (code:goGCN) others are available.

Direction: Can be changed weekly

Distance: Negotiable, but maybe neutralise the first 10mins or so.

Re-run: The bkool lads rerun their Tuesday ride on a saturday afternoon but in Zwift land it would be impossible as for example, the Tuesday night ride on Watopia can't be rerun on saturday at the course changes to Richmond World Champs


Thoughts?

Sounds interesting.

I can't guarantee a regular slot but have now got my Zwift set up 99% complete and up for the challenge


Name change and same jerseys is the way to go as well as a clear start/meet point; planned route (with the new watopia extension already tales of riders going different directions on a planned ride )

I got lost yesterday on my own haha

 

[bobinski]

I would be interested. Something sociable or something racey? Either way we would have to agree settings. I think the default is supposed to be flattering.

 

[T.M.H.N.E.T]

I'd be content with sociable, I think there's enough race potential on zwift already.

I would be up for it, I only dip my toes in Zwift now and again

Anybody thought about joining one of the Zwift run outs that they organise?

I did some of the BTW one last night at 7pm - 3 laps of Watopia at around 2.0-2.5w/kg - apart from the wrong turning it was a good ride!

I get itchy feet sitting around waiting for most of the organised rides to start.

Ideally a CC ride(I totally forgot) would start 6:30 ish What say the masses?

 

[Buck]

Often that could be too early. Often I'm too late from home for the 7pm rides!!

Having said that, it depends on how long we think we'll ride for time wise as I or anybody who misses the start could always joint on lap 2 or 3?

 

[Buck]

@T.M.H.N.E.T do we want to start one this week?

On Thursday I should be available by 6:45 / 7:00? Would that work for you?

Who else can make this day/time?

Yep works for me. Sociable 60 - 90mins?

 

[StevePurcell_SCC]

Can't make this Thursday

 

[bobinski]

Thursday is the bkool chain gang race so no good for me. Wednesday's best for me.

 

[Mr. P]

I'd potentially be up for a Thursday evening ride.
