Off what I've read on the NEO Facebook page, there seems to be a general consensus that if your trainer is out of warranty then don't update the firmware; reason is, if the firmware buggers up your trainer (it has for some) then Garmin will leave you unsupported. I think it's a case of if it ain't broke don't fix it!
I've never updated the firmware on my NEO2 and I think I'll leave it that way
Did you find any advantages of updating the firmware? Any specific fixes?

Don't fancy the risk of creating an expensive paperweight so unless an obvious fix I'll stick with what I have
Sometimes you win, sometime you loose. I can't say I have noticed much difference, except maybe that the virtual tyre slipping that plagued the NEO1+2 has gone after one of the updates. But that might be something else changed in Zwift/BKOOL etc., or just me not able to make it happen anymore. Haven't noticed it in a loooong time anywho.Hopefully no IRL riders reading this ... but I've suggested to them that I'm going for a breakaway (to keep them on edgeOnly 4 CChatters signed up for the IRL Summer Points League tonight.
It will be a strange race as all the points are on the finish line... a big 50 for 1st place!
Does one go for a breakaway victory or slug it out with the other sprinters?
) but I think sticking with the blob is the safer bet as i'll have zero chance to escape from 10-20 riders. If there are others who want to attack (we'll almost certainly have B riders with us) then I'll go with them too, but otherwise it will be wheelsucking until the last lap and then a long attack after the tunnel. Others in C have a much bigger sprint than me, so I'll need to take it long and hope I can stay away in the last km.I strongly suspect either of those two options is doomed for failure as far as I'm concerned!Only 4 CChatters signed up for the IRL Summer Points League tonight.

Same here Paul - if the main blob stays together I'm thinking sit in the draft until the tunnel about 1.5km out ... after climbing out the road levels for a very short time, then goes up to 1% for about 0.5km before the big corner before the finish. I'm hoping I can hold on up the tunnel exit, rest for 20 secs before going for a big push up the 1% that I'm hoping may catch people out .... then just keep pushing to the end. Don't expect to win, but hopefully can get top 5.
may not be a good plan, but on a course like this it's all I've got when lacking a sprint Hopefully no IRL riders reading this ... but I've suggested to them that I'm going for a breakaway (to keep them on edge
There are 4 in CC team, plus Paul and Brendan (both in B). I assume Steen will join too. No Tim today with me in C and no Steve yet, so I can see the Irish chaps giving me a kickingOnly 4 CChatters signed up for the IRL Summer Points League tonight.
