Need to have a look at it, but it sounds like what I need ... Will then switch after the 12 weeks to the Grand Fondo 100/200 in the new year. Throw in a couple of BRVR climbs a week and I'll be sorted.

there was one group ahead but there was no way i was strong enough to bridge the gap - i was one of the slowest in our group and everytime i took the front , the pace slowed so i did more than my fair share of draftingDid ToNY stage 1 today and didn't know what to expect after a long week of races and workouts, but decided to give it a go for 20 min and take it from there.
Ended up right at the front and saw Lee there. At the first sign of a hill I got dumped and decided to do the rest as a 5min on/5min off workout. Surprisingly I didn't loose too many places from there. Went from 23th to 58th.
I bet Lee stayed with that front group up that hill. Lee, see on ZP you ended in 9th - strong riding there.
- cant understand a 6 mile run in ? it was frantic from the offthats me done the toNY all stages ! do i get a badge ? or a good hearty cheer

I think you're right.No oddities in my ride. Sounds like Zwift "Bkool'ed" you
I had a quick scan through the final times and I'm more than 20 minutes behind people I was riding with on the Stage!
I've sent a support request to Zwift to see if they can sort out what happened.

Same plan as I have with the grand fondo, I’m trying to do the workouts early morning and leave every other evening for a few group rides/races.

A few years ago a guy in his 70’s overtook me going up a short hill. In fact I’d gotten off to push while he continued to cycle. Now sometimes when I’m struggling going up a hill i think about that so I keep pushing. Maybe the thought of being overtaken by runners will motivate your wife to keep going
A couple of years back on a club ride we were joined by willesden cycle club, I was pushing up this steep hill and couldn't talk when one of the guest riders overtook me, he was well into his seventees. Back at the cafe at the end of the ride I found out he was Wiggins coach for long time and had raced himself. I didn't feel quite so useless then.
