Lloydie and Phil are interesting folks I wager. I think I was in a league with one of them a long time ago. Wonder what their bike setups are like?

We only know what Lloydie is riding. An exercise/spinning bike (a Sportstech SX600 SPEEDBIKE) provided by the NHS... Only works as a smart bike with Kinomap - so he can set the resistance to what he feels like on BKOOL. Thankfully such bikes are DQ'ed on Zwift in most if not all races...

And I've seen the bike has failed a few times already and he's always asking for companies to fix?

...and BKOOL to "certify" it.

I sent a pm to the bkool account about dodgy trainers and they shouldn't have times allowed on events, they are looking into it....

I would have joined you had I seen this earlier. I ended up on the eCKD ride on RGT which always make me realise I'm the wrong shape for riding in Denmark.

When I planned my Denmark ride the "Visit Denmark" site assured me no hills. And pastries.

Anyone up for a draft train ride on the DeporVillage event tonight? 20km with 88m of elevation. Should be over in about 30-33 minutes max!

Hmm... There is a featured ride with a guy called Nan Oliveras tomorrow at "league time", so not sure if there actually is a DV featured one tonight? If not, you just select it at the top, but start right away - making it difficult for us to join and ride together!

I'll leave it then as my calf probably needs strength and recovery. Will do a small jog to use the muscles

Okay, maybe you can start the league ride tomorrow then? I might do the DV feautred ride instead, if there is no featured one tonight.
