I should probably rest today after a couple of hard rides...but if I am tempted I'll be doing the 17:15 WBR 1 lap GL hilly race

Anyone racing today?

Probably not, have some workouts to catch up on.

Not allowed to ride after Sunday for the whole of next week as having some tests done at docs and he wants me off the bike. So need to get as many done between now and then.

Hare/Hound races are my favourite. If you get a good group to ride with pace can be quick holding off B's & A's till the last portion of the race. Then if youve got anything left jump onto the faster groups to tbe finish

special pricing for neo 2017 model ... but they all say that in order to use with pc/windows I need to spend another 200 Euro roughly for Tacx SW ?

Is this really true ? If so, it seems to be a Neo/Tacx thing only as I have not seen this for other trainers.

(I do NOT intend to use iphone/ipad ... always laptop in from of me)

Buy the Neo, Use Zwift or your sim of choice, Ignore Tacx's offering ... which you get a month of free anyway ... You only need the app to upgrade firmware IIRC.

The only thing you may need to buy is an ANT+ or Bluetooth Dongle if you don't have one already

May give that a whirl if I'm home in time, sounds like fun (sort of!)

So I do not need their special SW to upgrade the firmware ... just the app on my iphone ?

On more thing ... read about issues on the tacx neo and long derailleurs - is that special to just mountain bikes ? My road bike is shimano 105 end to end. Nothing special
