Ditto as peterob I was sure we were about to catch you. Trouble was we were hardly catching you by the end. Where did you suddenly find the extra 500 watts?

I think I now know about the fairy dust you guys talk about

My moving time tonight as per Strava was 39:14 .... 6 seconds slower than last week Nice and consistent though Need to try and get below 39 mins next week

@Whorty, I didn't bother recording times for last week as it was such a mess.

I thought I was 6th on the road? I never saw @BaldyZ1 come past me ... was he in stealth mode as sometimes happens when you can't see all riders?

@rob01792 it looks like you were on your Neo tonight, but started on your Bkool Pro start time, in which case you should have been 2 mins 30 secs further up the road!

@Whorty, I didn't bother recording times for last week as it was such a mess.

No probs. I just looked it up on my Strava - kind of glad you didn't use last week's times as I'd have been 30 seconds later starting this week

You were 6th on the road, these are corrected times, @BaldyZ1 started nearly 3 minutes late!

Sorry I couldn't keep you company tonight @AAAC 76C - let alone share the workload! Bkool gave me a bit of a headwind today! I felt fine and was really trying but for some reason it was really tough tonight - maybe my trainer thought it was still in Zwift! I was over 3 minutes slower than my best time set recently, and comparing that ride with today's, my average watts were nearly 100 watts lower despite my HR being virtually identical. Oh well, good for fitness if not for speed or results

Provisional Handicaps for next time

As much as I'd like to say yes no i was on the pro feeling very slow found it tough tonight seam to be going backwards

You certainly clocked some impressive speed and watts whilst climbing!

does that mean a realistic handicap should be applied
