@peterob ToL stage 1 57:55 please :okay:

Got myself in a group of about 25 after Big Ben on 1st lap, which stayed together the whole race. We were flying, hence why such a decent time :wahhey: Need a drink now :cheers:
Well done @Whorty have one on me

Bloody quick there Carl:okay:

I was no where near that pace:heat:

Day 6 of back to back for me, even though I really didn't have the power, there were positives, I didn't feel shattered from 6 weeks off

Im trying to ride every day through Xmas, but wife is already frowning at the plan:sad:

Signed up to ToL stage 1 at 4 o'clock today if anyone fancies helping me get a good time ^_^

Tomorrow is hopefully Bkool stage 3 race.

Monday is definitely Chain Gang league stage 1 race day - @Milzy how does about 4 o'clock sound? Need to triple check with the wife but I think that should be OK for me. Anyone else fancy riding the league stage 1 ride again and want a meetup invite for Monday?
I'll join if I can but I'll probably be riding in plod mode.

But I'll lead you out to the start banner if that helps? :becool:

Please send me one too, as I might have an hour to spare at that time. :okay:
Strange. I invited everyone on my friends list but didn't really check who it went to. Just checking now, you wasn't available ... anyway, searching for you specifically seemed to work so invite should now be sent.

Anyone else not get an invite who wants one?

Definitely speed of the group and draft. I worked hard enough to stay in the group, pushed really hard on the little climbs not to get dropped. Zwift draft is a little crazy!

That would be perfect :okay: I'll be doing my calcs before the ride to see what time I need, but I recon I can afford to lose a few minutes on this stage and take C cat :wahhey: Unless Chris or Brendan join and put me under pressure :popcorn:

You can only invite people who follow you, not the other way around. I didn’t follow you when you sent out the first round of invitations. :sad:

Is it too late for me to join the December league retrospectively? I normally don't sign up because I can't make most of the group rides and don't fancy riding on my own with no draft! But with the Tour of London making up most of the stages, my times were almost competitive.

Unfortunately I did the short distance on most of the stages, cause I didn't know any better - only doing the full distance on stages 3 and 5 where you had no short option, so those are the only ones that will count for me.

ToL Stage 3 - 1:32:37
ToL Stage 5 - 1:22:16

I will also make an attempt at the Watopia 8 on Christmas Eve with any luck (what Strava segment are we using to track times for this?)

Steve - you should have an invite from me for the Watopia 8 stage ride at 4 this afternoon. The course for this is the Watopia 8 segment in Strava. This will begin at the start/finish arch and finish at the start/finish arch. Can't recall this course exactly, but I think there will be a short run in to the start banner so no point putting the power down too early .... although this run in isn't long enough to do a proper warm up so you might want to do this separately and then wait for the meetup (if you have accepted it) to pop up on screen.

I did see the invite, but unfortunately I'm at work today, so can't make it. I'm also at work tomorrow annoyingly, but hoping to finish a little earlier if it's quiet and so be home in time to do a ride before having to head round the in-laws for Christmas Eve drinks (not as bad as it sounds actually!)

If I do get to do the ride, I'll report my time from the Watopia Figure 8 (Zwift Insider Verified) segment as I think that'll be the closest to what everyone else has done.
