Word of advice for you doing the SC later tonight. Watch out for the dead-stops at 7.6km, 18.7km (only about 5-10m at 13,4% is enough to stop you completely) and a one a bit later.

So Zwift are also a bit crap at levelling the playing field between trainers?!

Correct. I've had some amazing rides on Zwift that blow away my BKool rides. So yes, Zwift have the exact same problems.

I didn't experience any dead stops the other night on SC8 ... strange

Lost 2 places mostly because of those dead-stops... You can find the video evidence at my Youtube channel, incl. all the micro-stops and slow menus, which has returned!

I'm planning to do SC8 again tonight but not planning to try and beat my previous time so if anyone wants some company then let me know Unless it's @AAAC 76C, @bridgy or @BILL S , I'll not be keeping you company

I'll be joining the 7pm live ride so see you if you're there Whorty. Looks to be quite downhill or is that just wishful thinking?

It's mostly down with the odd 'lump'. Power into the lumps and you fly over them. There are a few that drag on a few hundred mtrs but nothing too bad. The end is up hill but again should be able to power into it and hold the speed.

You're on Let me power off the line so you know I'm ahead then I'll slow down until you latch on. I'll try and drag you as long as I can

Me neither.. but I don't go as fast as you dudes.

Thank you for the support @rob01792 it was very much appreciated Sir..

I've been struggling with a lot of pain in my quads and tried moving around on the saddle during this afternoons SC8.. my performance was a little better up the hills but I suffered the indignity of broken skin .... underneath... nasty shower gel..

Good luck at 7 lads

Having watched the video, they do not seem like "real" dead-stops, just regular brake-downs. Sorry for the confusion, and have a nice race! But going at 60kph and to 0kph in just 10m feels like a dead-stop.

Sounds good to me Paul. You might be too quick for me but we can see how it goes.
