Zwift Chat

100% -though it felt more like 110% legs are moaning at me now though

OK.

Unless he uses the Bkool for power in Zwift - we’ll never know. Would be nice if both powersource and trainer info was available on ZwiftPower.

It would be. My Neo measured power after drive train losses. All those not on Neos or using their own power meter will have an advantage. It’s just Zwift though, to be taken with a pinch of salt.

3hrs 20 mins on the turbo all in my SS gearing (50/19). Started off by doing the 3 Sisters route; this let me put in 900 metres of elevation in the first 40km of riding. This was trying to simulate the ToC where most of the elevation will be early on in the ride. I was quite surprised that I could climb the Epic KoM in my SS gear, this just shows how much I've improved this past few months The last climb was the Volcano KoM, where I ended up getting a PB which is not bad given I had been riding for 90 mins already. Then headed over to the desert flats where I did a few loops to get to 100km. Legs not too bad at the end, but seat was getting sore. All this done on 1 1/2 bottles of water with SiS tablet but no food. 3 or 4 of these types of ride a week leading up to ToC should see me hitting good form and (hopefully) losing the final 2-3 kg

All you guys with your "preparation" for DD and TOC - ridiculous behaviour.

Incredibly


Carl here is your new challenge

24th all comers for the triple

7mins difference in all three ascents

If only I'd known Lee was going for that today, I may have joined him

I might give it a go soon ... but need my legs to recover from today first

 

[Whorty]

I would be - but only have a dumb trainer so no resistance changes.

When is your Neo bike due? Do you have a delivery date yet?

 

[Whorty]

I have a feeling that we don't see Carl in here today, he is Zwifting now.

I'll still be dropped by you guys in the first mile

Agreed- not worth worrying about.

Need to set timer recording ready for my sat receiver tomorrow. Old classic Liege-Bastogne-Liege start tomorrow. Alaphilippe and Fuglsang probably find each other tomorrow too.

I cancelled the order. Got fed up with the continual failure to meet dates. Spent the money on the SystemSix instead - well my very good lady's money

Well, tried to do the stage 4, but I just can't find the motivation for these indoor rides anmore. The deathblow was when Spotify decided to skip my Coldplay playlist and play some finish pop music. It was just horrible (sorry JuhaL)

No need to be sorry, i don't listen much Finnish music these days, probably because of same reasons as you . Battle Beast is a band what i occasionally listen these days.
