Cracking rides all round last night - well done fellas!

Daniel's recovered from Covid (he was fine all last week, and had -ve tests on Saturday and Sunday, days 5 & 6). Unfortunately, his school has been decimated by Covid and they've closed the Nursery and Reception classes, so Jo and I have been enjoying a second week of 'working' at home with him in attendance, furhter complicated by having to homeschool him as well. Work for me is ridiculously busy at the moment, so evenings are being spent doing calculations and writing reports; Zwifting's gone onto the backburner for me for a while...

Sorry to hear that @Legs - I've got two young children (pre-school) and as hard as things have been for us during the lockdowns, my wife doesn't work and we didn't have to do home schooling so we had it easy compared with most. I saw colleagues trying to juggle work and homeschooling and I don't envy you at all!

I've got a bug and spent the day fighting off classic cold symptoms with a mixture of paracetamol and tissues, so no TdZ stage for me tonight!

That means I will probably need to do this stage during the catch up days, rather than having another crack at the Alpe stage. Just got fingers crossed I recover for the next stage on Friday at this point.

@IrishAl stage 5 ZP 48:50

Shouldve done better but messed up the start (I wasn't paying attention to time and was lubing the chain as it was squeaking), made up the places on the bumps at the end of each lap, went from 550 at the start to 340 ish across the line at the end

First lap was fairly frantic. I had to back off on lap 2 or I wouldn't have made it round and the thought of doing it again was even worse

Good times @kipster and @alex_cycles.
1:04:01 For me. 😴 Legs were tired after last night race so I could only treat it as a recovery ride. I might take another crack at it during the catch up week but it’s a horrible course so I could easily give it a miss.

@straas Did you receive a club invite a few days back? Maybe I missed you out (or we don't follow each other)?

Hi Steve,

(Asking for an invitation for something goes completely against the grain for me, etiquette-wise, but...)
Please may I have an invitation to the CC Splitters club?
I'll follow you in Companion if that's necessary.

Don't worry @Legs. Asking for an invite to the Club isn't like asking for an invite to Boris Johnson's birthday party! We'll let you off

Invite sent!

As @mjd1988 also has full Clubs access, it means we've now got multiple people able to send out invites (and hopefully soon even more), so it'll be easier to find someone who can add members as time goes on.

I noticed last night that I have full access now too! Cheers for the Mod access too Steve 👍

I've got full access to clubs on zwift. I don't need to be a moderator for splitter though.

I think I can invite people too now for what it’s worth but it sounds like you guys have the invites covered.

So maybe I should be in charge of the ‘un invites’

To be fair to get invited to one of his parties I think you just needed to bring a bottle

Or a block of cheddar

Are you keeping a list of targets to uninvite?

A suitcase full of bottles Poor old Rishi (my MP) accidentally attended - what a nightmare!

Anyway enough of this as we'll get the thread locked and moved to the political section
