All the best @Joffey! Hope you’re not too down in the dumps mate.

Cheers mate. Got my head round it now so all good. Looks like you have great fun in the mountains - great pics

As soon as I mention my groin you suddenly get Covid... I'd best not mention my heyfever or you'll beak a wrist!!!

Hope you feel ok with it and recover quickly mate

I've been reading Bob's Big Book of Excuses ...
Not feeling too bad so far. Hope this is as bad as it gets.

Carl,

I bet y'all are glad to know

I'm feeling better today. Two days of sleeping mostly has set me on the path to recovery

Still got lingering cough and sore throat,🤧. But feel much better👍

3 days in Wales. Many highlights, including descending Rhigos with tailing motorbikes unable to catch us - in fact, we gapped them, then grinned our heads off at the bottom when they passed us. Way too much climbing on Tuesday (3131m - 50% more than previous record).
But this one, particularly quirky climb - Constitution Hill in Swansea yesterday is a favourite. 2 minute climb at 20% but COBBLED!

Only 822 people have done it on Strava. I wonder why? (Well - apart from the no entry signs, that is)

Loads of impressive rides happening atm, or have recently happened. I have enjoyed reading about them but haven't really commented much as I'm still struggling with my injury and have been in a bad place mentally with all things cycling.

Joffey.... You'd have been impressed with my ride this morning, out to a greasy spoon for a Full English with 3 cycling buddies putting the world to rights & discussing our Cotswold ride / bbq / camp next month...

Family persuaded me to go out today. Lincolnshire agricultural show, looking at tractors and bloodhounds 😁🚜🐕

Well after using my 2nd hand elite direto for a few weeks, I have upgraded to a Wahoo kickr.
I do most of my riding indoors to build up fitness, which is a slow process.
I found the Direto OK ish but emitting odd noises all the time....it was annoying.

Let's see how the Wahoo fairs.

 

[CXRAndy]

Welcome Brava.

We are a bunch of weirdo misfits, who like you, do most of our riding indoors.

We have a few who complain about dodgy knees and erm groin injuries. The rest of us are very sympathetic to their ailments 😁👍

Summer vacation is over and I start my work today. Just calculate kilometers what I did during my vacation. Summary: Total 1584km, 396km virtual and 1188km irl. All that in 33 days. Not my record, not even close but pretty satisfied for that.

 

[Brava210]

First Wahoo ride....Wow.
It's completely different to Direto.
It feels like you are actually riding on the road.
Big plus....its silent.
It reacts to climbs...flats...descents very accurately too.

I like.

Is it a direct-drive one, @Brava210 ? Good to hear that it’s good!

I really rate the workout erg mode in Zwift. Some of the in-built workout sessions are fiendish, but I find it very motivating to listen to Enya while I’m turning myself inside out to keep the pedals turning. 🤣

What if you listen this while you pedaling ?. Not for sure but it's not much faster than Enya
