[AAAC 76C]

You can still do the 1AM race tonight and be in the draw for those grand prizes.

Good idea for a Tee, Towel and Bottle, NOT!

Anyway, got my windows 10 Laptop working in the backroom linked up to my big screen and using the same plug in network (through mains) adaptor as my PC plugged in to the same socket so it looks like a PC problem.
I do have a PC update that won't load so perhaps my doggy windows 7 load has been busted.
Looks like I get a better picture from the Laptop so I might even see some BSim performance (not mine) improvements

Cheers @Whorty i stayed the course just couldn't hold ur wheel
Good to see @Goldwolfie getting his form back well done

I went back for you but couldn't see your ghost so figured you'd dropped a connection hence I pushed on. Well done for finishing, it's quite a tough ride

 

[AAAC 76C]

OK, let's see the updated ranking tomorrow. I think I might have passed you!

Pep should be moving on up as well, as he has been doing multiple SC stages today, beating @AAAC 76C by more than 2 minutes in one of them...

More than one.

Descending the Poggio 20 kph faster than me and the Cippressa 10kph faster will have helped
800 watts going downhill at 84 kph is impressive pedalling.
My problem is I am always recovering from climbing and the effort required to make you go much faster than the hill does is never proportional than going up.
He is a little bit fitter thane me though, especially when it comes to endurance. 45 minutes and I'm mashed.

He has a new turbo:

Just says "Bkool Smart Pro" for his ride yesterday (same as me) as far as I can see...?

Last ride on SC he was on the smart pro

Yes, but the icon in the rankings is not a black Pro like the rest of us, which made me wonder...

Oh right sorry I didn't notice that - only ones I've seen have the black pro image

It says BKool Connect Sport.
Look familiar?

I see what you mean now - the icon in the overall league standings. Well individual rides all seem to be down as a normal black Bkool Smart Pro. perhaps just a Bkool quirk?

The box that my 1st gen. Pro came in also just said "Bkool Connect Sport". No mention of Smart or Pro. I think they kept the same packaging throughout it's life.
Being user no. 58, he must have been a real early adapter of the platform, maybe that's why?

Pep once told me he was one of the guys who developed Bkool
