I'll start:

Mont Caro

 

[Add]

My turn.... Everest..... South face!

 

[Add]

That's strange. Its almost like the parameters have reset. I can't see any sign of your result on stage 4 when I looked either so not sure why. Red X means its not been accepted.

If Add were admin I'd suspect he'd gone in and altered the parameters to not accept anyone less then 80kg. :P

I think It'll sort itself out when the new league is started.

Pfffffft, 100kg!

 

[Rayvon]

It would be good if we could also try and get together one night at a set time and do the agreed route for that day. Not something we're obligated to do but turn up if you can.
Will have a look and pick my ride

 

[Runexeter]

Hi Runexeter. You might be too late for this league but we're hopefully about to start a new one .

Cheers Bill that's not a problem.
Question: I know how the fitness levels work but not the Vet, so I'm Veteran 1 which I take is 40-49, Veteran 2 50+ or something else?

 

[berty bassett]

Berty did extra vertical miles to get the brownie points to become club admin .

Actually looks like there can be 5 admins in the group so I just made the first 5 who joined as admin. Anyone who wants to be removed just let me know.

oooo i'm admin ! never been that before . do i get a badge - a light weight one mind !

 

[Add]

Would be neat if we could do one or two of those Rayvon. A lot of us appear to be UK based, so logistically it should be very feasible. It will be fun to watch a dozen of us all tuck in behind Bill, and let him drag us along for 20 miles...... Which means we will need something nice and flat!
Incidentally, whatever happened to Pascual? He appears to have dropped off the Bsim map, so to speak!

Slightly worrying as I thought my weight was fairly normal at just under 14 stone. (89 kg)

Ah well, I'm sure it'll be grand for the next league - get 'er started soon as I've only another 3 week to decide whether to keep this thing! Appreciate all the work that goes into this sort of thing so thank you all involved for starting this up.

I'd also join those rides especially if they're early evening.
HaHa. Nice though about tucking in behind me but I can't make good power on the flat or downhill. I'll be struggling to tuck in behind you chaps.
No idea whats happened to Pascual. I noticed he did a ride yesterday. And his Cycling Around the World has lots of members. The Test Ride Group might just have to be changed to the "Rebels" or "Breakaways".

Woop's I see what you mean . However 89kg is the weight I reached 2 years ago before deciding I needed to do a lot more miles. Actually I'm 79kg now so still not exactly a lightweight for my5' 8"

I also got this contraption for a test. I got he Classic first which was a bit noisy for my loft so I sent it back and bought the Pro from Wiggle as their customer services are somewhat better than Bkools. Having said that Bkool do seem to get round to things eventually. Hopefully including refunding me the money they weren't supposed to take.

Yeah, looks like it just disappears once the last date has passed.

Hopefully you'll get your badge soon ,but as I said above, customer services are somewhat slow.

I'm Veteran 2 so it must be 50 - 59. I haven't come across a Veteran 3 yet but I'd guess that's 60 - 69.

That's me, that is.

 

[BILL S]

That's quite a miles you've racked up there Asa. Your YTD is about 50% more than mine.
