I feel bad now getting heavily beaten by oaps needing hearing aids and glasses. Should have got into cycling earlier!

@Bored Man, just done a 500_1 ride with no ghost. Looked at my analysis and seen you'd done it. 8 seconds in it!

Good ride.. I spin these stages at around 80% as it’s more about keeping lean than getting the HR going, there’s only 3 weeks left of the tour...

I’ll then set a fresh one for March. 80-100 miles per month.

 

[shimceltic]

Yeah I managed to keep my heart rate to about 140, sometimes it's better without a time to aim for and just go at a decent pace

That’s absolutely what Bkool does for me.. spin out the miles and put my head down once a week against you guys...

Wonder what trainers they will use? Can't see them using a wheel on trainer like the Pro, but maybe they'll use and promote the new Bkool air (?) wheel off, or even the bike (has that been released yet?)

Dunno my friend... I liked it cos it bucks the trend.. if it gets a few more dudes and dudettes riding the Kool.. due to my maverick nature - I therefore like it.

Missin you...

Yes, the bike has been available since sometime last fall, unlike a certain smart bike from Garmin, sorry Tacx.
