And I'm going to fit a utility room out for my sister in law. Feel kind of duty bound since she just bought me a Garmin 920XT for my birthday! Wife was supposed to pay her for it, but she said, nah I'll buy it him.
It got its inaugural swim session last night! Love it, but it has left me wanting for a set of Garmin Vector Powertap pedals to accompany it.
Might have to do her patio as well if she's going to fork out £700 for a pair of them!

Did you want to go halves on one Geoff? Mind if I go first?

I really hope I can get home in time to join in but caught up in a mind numbing tender process at work that is going very very slowly. Hope to see you all on the starting line!

I will be there. So I do a one minute Velodrome dummy race from the BKool Indoor Leagues page. I guess this could be done at any time, e.g. now? Then just find the chain gang Velodome session via Live filter at 7 pm?

Sorry, I cant make this evening.

Team Steel-Jessop will be there...1958 tandem, a bit under geared but we've just tested it and it seems to work, if a bit wobbly... Not sure what power we'll put out but I don't think we'd better be counted in the results.

I don't care that I was comprehensively beaten, I improved my 50 lap time by a whole 10 seconds small improvements... (just tipped over to an average speed of 30.1mph )

Good race Bill and LB, thanks for the tow as you lapped me!

Guy, that extra pair of legs really worked

 

[GuySJ]

We need a bigger chainring, max cadence 150 and average of 117, It's good fun on the road but a bit small for us both.

 

[BILL S]

looking for someone willing to be slipstreamed for most of the race.

Thanks LB. That willing rider was you it seems. Hope that's not really bad velodrome etiquette.

I though Bkool outdoor was an iPhone app.

What the heck was up with that race? There doesn't look like any draftable ghosts. The lowest watt/kg is 3.9!!

Thanks LB. That willing rider was you it seems. Hope that's not really bad velodrome etiquette.

Not at all. I thought I would just do it as a 20 min. full power interval and not think to much about draft. I couldn't help trying to beat you though, but just didn't have a sprint left in the end.
I got a heck of a workout, thanks all

That's just crazy I thought it was some kind of super-ghost. More than 540 watt avg...wild.
