Was a DNF for me in the ZRL Turned everything on for a long warm up and my virtual shifting wouldn’t work. Tried unpairing then pairing, re booted the laptop, checked for an update all to no avail. Got into the pen and set off, within twenty seconds I was only doing 2.8W/KG but 120rpm so without the option to change gear with everyone disappearing down the road I Decided to sack it off.
re-set everything again and typically it started working 🙄 Decided to do a V02 workout as punishment 🤣

There was a lot of chatter on our discord as we warmed up wether there's was or wasn't a lap segment

There IS, but it doesn't count. It wasn't listed on the WTRL pre-race site.

I accidentally got 3rd FTS on lap 1 - I sprinted at the end to catch up with the breakaway getting a better lap time than one of them that finished slightly before me - must have started the lap behind them

WTRL are recalculating all the results because they screwed up. All the morning results included the segment which is the whole lap as well as the two intended segments. When pointed out to them, they vigorously denied it, then suddenly all the segment results disappeared and are being recalculated.

Just saw that. Pretty poor form how they addressed that and then stopped engaging when they were shown it wasn't a misunderstanding!

Oh no! @bridgy had something similar today for the first time ever so I wonder if something is up there too

Well that's a shame cause I would have won that if they kept it in! Not through trying or anything, I just happened to be at the head of the pack as we rolled over the line.

Funny you should say that. One of my teammates had the same issue but managed to sort it before he got into the pen last night

Yeah what happened with me is I connected everything normally (via bluetooth), did a 30 minute warmup with no issues, went to the race pen - and then when the race started everything had disconnected. I went to the pairing screen and was able to find and re-connect the trainer via Ant+ but by the time I'd figured that all out and got going I was a minute and a half behind the pack. I did carry on though and caught up with a few riders. I went quite hard first lap in the hope that maybe the front froup might take it really easy until the first KOM but that really undulating terrain I think makes it really hard for a solo rider to catch a big pack - might have had an outside chance if it was pan flat and they were going easy (but probably not!)
