I am sure DBR will launch a series for Wednesdays at 7.05 UK, if that helps those of you not being able to rider earlier in the night.

This is a good time for me. I can generally make 7:05 work about 70% of the time. 7:30 climbs to 90%

All dictated by the youngsters!

630 is definitely just a little to early for me, for more than just the odd one off.

I think our children are similar ages, aren’t they 🙂

Yep!

1830 is usually iggle piggle and upsy daisy time rather than zwift!

Did you see Princess Catherine reading the CBeebies Bedtime story last night...

It’s a shame that series is at 18:30 Paul. The format looks so good. For me that time is ok for what it’s worth. But it seems not so much for a few others. Hopefully other organisers pick up on the good ideas in the format.

Finally! Let’s hope it is successful and becomes the norm.

It's a test. And there is no flawless system. At least they're doing something.

None of which makes my statement any less true.

Love the comments on the link ... everyone who has been upgraded doesn't like the system lol

Of course, if I get upgraded to A now, then the system is definitely flawed

Update companion app on phone. Open up app, go to events, scroll across to say 22nd and scroll through events until you find a Future Works event for auto cat (can't recall exact name but you'll spot it)

Open event and you'll see that you can only enter certain cats
