That's the spirit

Seen you'd done it on Strava, early morning too.. didn't you follow it with anoth ride as well - good going McWhortface.

I'm going to have a spin in the veledrome later - an hour or two - nothing hard.

I did do a second ride. Not High tempo but enough to know I was working!

Bill (or anyone for that matter)- can you give me some advice please re chaingang rides, have completed April stage 1 and 2 (against ghosts because of time difference) and whilst it shows the amount of time taken it's not included with the other riders, is there something else i should? great ride btw Jim on stage 2 it was just about all i could do to stay marginally in front

Not sure what the question is Steve.
Are you saying the ghosts times are not showing in the drop down in your stats review?

Jim.
I see Bill's ride from Thursday has not landed yet so we are No 1&2 in Stage 2 and the GC.

perhaps AAAC a snapshot will explain it better, my time of 32.12 is recorded but not listed with you guys, or am i just being dumb?

Hi Steve.. great ride.

The Bkool system has been slow in populating leagues and obviously Bill will need to authorise it before it hits the main leaderboard. As long as you rode the 'league' ride, I'm sure it will show.

Cheers

Don't mention rides bring slow to upload, your spark a coop.

Too late, it's happened already!

Sorry, you're absolutely right... Steve, the reason it's running a little slow is due to Bkools huge, worldwide popularity..

Me and Bkool are meneded again. Pablo is on my Christmas card list.

I always have to chuckle that when you log into BSim you get the, there are 654 riders on line and 425 live sessions.

So at least one third of the live rides are singletons and of those 400 odd live sessions you only have direct access to a handful as the home screen only lists 8 live sessions and 8 velodrome.
Before you could scroll through the live sessions and find one that was well populated and at your level.

Don't wear him out before his Sunday epic!

@Jim Brown couldn't get near your time yesterday. I lost you at the start so had to work hard to get your wheel. Didn't get you until about 1km in. Had you ok until towards 3,5 km when you seemed to pick up the pace - maybe this is when @AAAC 76C started towing you. I dropped your wheel at 4km as I couldn't hold 300 watts.

Legs were a bit tired going into the ride but even so you set an amazing time. Would like to have another pop when I have fresh legs!

yes I got the email

That's cos we were all chasing Rob, the Bat Out of Hell.
He went off like a shot!

if only I could hold that pace for longer than 10 secounds
