Well Randy, I think it's because I keep my best and cleanest outfits for the VR whereas most of you chaps seem to keep your best for the RW. As you know, I've been a bit sceptical about the RW ever since quantum physicists said that its highly likely that we are all part a holographic universe. :huh::scratch:
Multiverse I hope. I want to believe there is a universe where you are 1:43 behind me in today’s race.

Crikey @Randyberlin - I got stuck on the line and buried myself catching you up... I was on the limit all the way.. really good workout.. I always felt that you could ride away at any time??

Just the opposite. I knew on the uphills you would kill me so I tried to get away before both of the uphill sections but couldn't gain at all. I thought you beat me at the line but in Bkool we're tied.

If anyone else is on Beta it looks like a completely different server. Only a handful of users. On regular BKOOL 270 users. So for today’s race must be on original program
After you registered for the beta, how long was it before you got the email link to download the new sim?

I've cancelled my Bkool subscription this week although it still runs until 2 August, and I've already had 2 emails asking me to stay with one offering a reduced rate.

Then, I got the offer of joining the beta trial, so I thought I'd try it before my subscription ended, as they are claiming improved performance with 3rd party smart trainers. I thought I may renew if the Neo looked like it would work well with the new sim.

But, around 3 hours after being welcomed to the beta programme, no bloody email link!

I love my Pro... :music:
Agreed :okay: It got me into cycling and online racing which is the important thing, and I'm loving it. Such a shame we can't race together still on Bkool but you'd stuff me on the Pro vs my Kickr. I'm hoping the new sim sorts the differences out but I think this may be wishful thinking :thumbsdown: Really enjoying racing now over on the dark side, such a shame it can't be with me mates :biggrin:

Be really interesting if they have equalised the trainers ... :okay:

It was the next day.

Someone earlier suggested having two groups in every race. BKOOL and non BKOOL. As everyone transitions to the direct drive types it will be equal more or less.
Like with today’s race it sure is fun. I haven’t been riding in Zwift and haven’t ever raced in it but knowing Jim Brown in today’s race made me push to my limit.
