he is a s**t hot cyclist , hope it comes together for him

I think you get penalised for not using a HR strap , not sure how though.


it must be the drafting effect OJ ....personally its the one thing in zwift I could do without , I would rather my power + speed is all earned by myself , but I get why they want to make it as realistic as possible

I'm tempted. I might just be a bit too tired, but we'll see.

Oh dear.

I had various child duties and when I got to the shed ready for action ..... my Ethernet wasn't connected in the house ....

after doddering down the garden and plugging it in ........ It just didn't log in fast enough ...... I missed the start.

Do you lads not ride your bikes for fun anymore? Bit of fresh air, picturesque village lanes, the occasional café stop and all that.

I'm really just jealous that I'm not part of the Zwift club.

Well that was a waste of time. For some reason my kickr doesn't like the races. The resistance didn't change at all so I was essentially just riding on the flat but my speed was changing based on the gradient.

Decided to get a hardish hour in and then get off.

Although 299W for the hour isn't too shabby!

I'll take that.

steve, this ride on Monday - will I be ok in group B ?

also, do I have to listen to some dude talking or will I know when to BurN OFF up box hill ?

ta

The SZR-London group ride features 4 groups and each group rides at a different pace:

A Group = 3.5-4w/kg
B Group = 3-3.5w/kg
C Group = 2.5-3w/kg
D Group = 1.5-2.5w/kg

Choose the group you feel comfortable riding in but please respect the pace of the group. Do not join the D group if you want to ride at 3+ w/kg. Each group has a ride leader (the rider with yellow beacon above) and they dictate the pace. Do not ride faster than the ride leader.

This is a social ride with a twist at the then of the ride. We have a short race at the end that finishes at the Box Hill KOM. The ride leaders will tell you when the race starts. Stay behind the ride leader until the race part of the ride begins.

All are welcome but please respect the pace of the group you join and the ride leader instructions.
GROUPS
