Having yesterday told Peter that I'm not free riding on Zwift much, I've just done 51km which leaves just 14 to complete the SL8
🙌

Just seeing that it is 6 hours for the first update of the cadex Tri which doesn't feel like a worthwhile investment of time as I really don't enter TTs outside of ttts. Maybe I'll save that for downhills once the sl8 is done
My thought process on upgrades is...
You have to put work/time into climbing and mountain bikes, that need elevation for upgrades
Most bikes require distance, so use them on downhill and flat when you have energy to go at decent speed eg. 30kph+
TT frames simply require moving time, so use them on days you have little energy on flat routes, on mountains if you've upgraded your climbing bike
Alex - don't suppose you have any idea when the next DIRT Racing series is likely to happen do you?
I don't. Normally I would have seen some chat about it by now, but there hasn't been any. So I'm guessing we might not have a September series. But it is just a guess. I think they guys at DRS have all got a bit busy with life.
Yeah that's fair enough! I do like their race series so I hope they do get the chance to sort something out later in the year.
I'm contemplating looking for a ZRL team for that series starting in September. They use the old categories still and currently I'm a C, after having always been B. I don't know whether that's an accurate new level for me or just because of a lack of recent racing so I really ought to do some full on race efforts to find out!

Id be interesting. I'm currently a b but know I'll have lost fitness and suspect I've gained weight so will need to update that and enter some races to know
