Yeah, well done @Breedon
You got yourself into 33rd place. (66th for me)
198th for me. Good thing I haven't added the (team cyclechat) after my name.

Breedon,
Great time! I must admit I feared you were on the NEO but breathed a huge sigh of relief when I saw you were not.

After the fiasco of the last WC ride we did i couldn't bare to do it again on the neo, i have both trainers set up in the loft now so i can use my classic for bkool and the neo for anything else takes all of 2 minutes to move things around and off i go.
Cracking ride Breedon:okay:. Was that on the Neo?

Seen Bob's comment, you now need to do it again on the Neo. For comparison

That's a good idea andy think i will, probably do on Monday evening but just use my own ghost.

I took it quite steady Whorty, I tried to keep up with @Randyberlin going up but he turned round a minute up on me, by the time we returned, he had me beat by three minutes. I didn't kill my self on the way back.. :thumbsup:
I went up the hillier side steady, and got to the top ahead of both yourself and @Randyberlin but the 'down-side' of the ride was an absolute killer and Randy just blew me away. That was very hard. I won't be doing that ride again in a hurry!

If I don't feel too bad tomorrow I might have a pop at WC8 :tongue: If I don't ride tomorrow I won't have a chance to get on the bike again until next Friday due to work, which is not ideal :sad: Not a great way to train for the DD

I am officially in awe of Pep
WC S6 48 min at 6.24 W/kg at 140 bpm
I couldn't match Artanec up the final climb but Pep bested him by 2 seconds all at 142 bpm
Is he in his mid seventies?

AAAC. You should have a try in erg mode

Just had a go at WC stage 8, just to see if there was any more Bkool generosity in the bag. It looked like it at first, but when we got to the climb the watts was pretty much on par, which I have noted is the case on +8% regardless of Bkool generosity.

Interestingly all the front guys didn't seem to be affected by dead stops. I was right on Jacobs tail when we hit the climb, but in no time a bunch of 10 guys whooshed past me and disappeared in the horizon.

I didn't have the stamina to finish that stage, but I would expect to finish right around Breadon's time.

Andy, I don't give a hoot what mode he was in.
In my book anyone pushing over 6 W/kg for 45 minutes is going to be in hard work mode and unless your in your seventies that who normally require an HR greater than 142, or am I just a bit synical or perhaps a tad jealous.
To be honest employing ERG mode in a league ride should be banned. We all complain enough about the lack of VR and ERG mode is not VR.

On box, off box.

LB there are probably quite a few folk on Classics and press Any FEC Pro's.
That's why I bought a new one because there was no fairness racing in the cyclechat races with me on my old Pro.

I have another month's free trial for Trainer-road to give away. Hands up all those with spare time to fit in further pain and suffering? ^_^
