I’m not sure I understand why you’d need to wear more than bib shorts, socks and shoes for Zwifting…

@BurningLegs good to see you on the road!
First B race in a while, managed to hang with (giant) front group, but nothing left to sprint.
Weirdly still not posting B numbers though, my average was the same over 50 mins as my 20 min average so just a relentlessly consistent effort

No need to hide your sensuality. If they start staring at you, just ask them don't you guys ever seen boobs before, well it's about time

They like all sitting round and having bets how many times his knee clicks - better than X factorNo need to hide your sensuality. If they start staring at you, just ask them don't you guys ever seen boobs before, well it's about time

We all have a ways to amuse ourself, that probably needs a few bags of popcorn and few bottle of coca-cola to wait when it's happen and how many times i guess, or something more British.

Aw shucks, it’s not available on All4, so I can’t watch it except on t’telly. Guess I’ll have to save my long ride for another time!

Not with the NEO bike- at least since I got a replacement. It’s too heavy.
Did anyone watch the tennis? I watched it with Wendy and the standard of tennis was amazing.

Anyone doing Zwift Academy? I am not but I am dipping into the rides every now and again .Be warned that workout 2 Peak V02 max is a toughie. It’s one of those cumulative fatigue workouts that bites hard, as intended, near the end.

Yeah, I didn’t get to bed until just before midnight, so I couldn’t face a 5am Zwift today (my boys get up at 6am so I have to do it earlier than that, or in the evening).
The match was very exciting - I thought Fernandez was a worthy finalist and they both played some lovely shots. I almost wouldn’t have minded if it had had to go to three sets, I was enjoying it that much!

Took part in my first Duathlon yesterday, the Sri Chinmoy GO TRI event at Tockington School in South Gloucestershire.
It was a 2K run, 15K Bike, 2K Run edition with the run being 3 laps of the school rugby pitches before heading out on the quiet lanes to Pilning & back.
Due to covid the run started with each competitor lining up and going at 10 second intervals, due to my lack of previous time I started towards the back of the field.
The first run was okay with me running it at a pace of 5:27min /km, the first transistion was interesting, taking off the trainers whilst remembering to undo the laces, and then running across part of the field in your cleats to the bike mount line, where I slipped trying to get my cleats into the pedals.
The bike leg was on lanes I know well and is fairly flat with the exception of a couple of bridges crossing the motorways. I managed to pass quite a few other competitors during the bike section which was encouraging although my speed was slower than I expected !
The final transition was okay but I have to say I struggled on the final run, running it at a pace of 5:38min /km.
My provisional time is 50:59 which I'm pleased with for a first attempt and must say I'm looking forward to the next event.
Here is the Strava pic of the bike leg...

Yeah but as it was a decathlon, we want to hear about how the javelin and the 110 metre hurdles went
Seriously though - well done! I did a Duathlon a couple of years ago and would be up for doing one again - I've actually considered doing that one you did actually as it's in my neck of the woods too. The one I did was a DB Max event at Castle Combe race track. Glad you enjoyed it
