A few years ago, when looking for a good simulator, Bkool was nice. In the meantime, other have come that have more appeal to me. I particularly like Rouvy now. Nice augmented reality, better website, matching video and slope and lot's of social grouprides and races. I will abandon Bkool later this year, so won't be racing with you guys anymore, sadly.

Yes, I will start the warmup at 5 PM UK (1h30 from now).

Thanks @Brusgaard
Pushed me to try to keep up. I appreciate it!

Just downloaded the new Beta. Much improved start. Can start without full 10 minutes.

Great - so 1 step back and 1 step forward…

Seems better at the augmented ride.

Shame, but like you said there are other options that suit different needs. I like rgt for free racing. The tacx app for good videos and bkool still has a part to play and I think they are slowly realising they need to make it more user friendly and social.

I thought we finished last month! I've just had a big bag of crisps and drank far too much on a day out on Tuesday that I'm still feeling the effects of, I'll pass.

@shimceltic, damn, sounds like fun. Now I have to go plant berry shrubs in the bitter wind before the rain arrives. Oh well, need the upper body workout anyhoo.

Beautiful spring day here. Outside ride today as soon as I get my chores done. Too bad I can't do the big climb some jerk scheduled for this week. Maybe later.

I though March was the last month too. I've now cancelled my sub and will use RGT when the weather's rubbish but I'll hopefully see you on Bkool again come October. Have a great summer of real world rides.
