Zwift Chat

Have we agreed on whether we take the meet up race results or Strava segment for the iTT? @bridgy @steverob

I have quoted the meet up result time - I would be more than happy to take the strava segment time of 37'51" though

Anyone got any tips for avoiding a “wedgie” between fingers from mitts?

Fingers hurting more than legs after a ride today!!

On the basis Steve said the meetup distances are consistent I don't mind - will just have to use the meetup function instead of clubs when we setup the group ride. Which is fine, except some newer members might not currently follow me on zwift, but that can be sorted if needed

I know exactly what you mean and suffered with that - Castelli Arenberg mitts have solved it for me though, no more pain from them

Sorry, the answer is properly-fitting mitts…

Yeah it maybe means the mitts are too loose so your fingers are pushing forward on the bars and sliding forward in the mitts. Or some mitts have stitching in odd places.

Trial and error I’m afraid.

Not a bad view up the Dales today chaps!!! It's a shame that the weather is changing. Might have to have a stab at the iTT this week as the rain is a coming!!

Regarding the TT is anyone free to do it Friday evening? I don’t think I’ll get a chance before then and I don’t think I’ll be free over next weekend after that either.

As always thanks a lot for setting it all up @bridgy and thanks for the top spreadsheet work @IrishAl. I really appreciate it 👍

37.00.5 for the meetup time
35.22 for the segment

Managed to be too late for a warm up for an event I created.

Hence I felt like absolute dung the entire time so didn't feel like a great run but I'm happy with the power numbers.

A TT by yourself with no one to aim for or any idea of whether you are doing well or not is a very strange experience but definitely good to mix it up.
