To be fair to @bobinski , when he's back to full fitness he'll blow me away. I'm currently top end C and Bob is a good B. What Bob has to be careful about is me holding or improving my power whilst at the same time getting down to 70 kgFixed that for you
Only 10kg to go and I'll be in the mix with the B racers

I have been using my defy on the turbo the one with the irreparably damaged . drop out A mechanic had fashioned a 6mm thick washer to fit and hold the axle but inevitably the drop out has worn further. I am going to have a look at repair but in the meantime popped my kinesis pro 6 on the turbo. It felt v strange! More upright, shorter top tube. I didn’t like it.The Speedplay pedals on defy had seized up and I couldn’t get them off so using spd’s and that felt strange too! So, my excuse in advance for tomorrow is...it all felt very strange
Well that's a new excuse Bob ..... is that going in your new book?I have been using my defy on the turbo the one with the irreparably damaged . drop out A mechanic had fashioned a 6mm thick washer to fit and hold the axle but inevitably the drop out has worn further.

I think so. I like the non specific nature of it, you know, it all felt very strange. I am being silly I know but the bikes dimensions making me a bit more upright just felt wrong.
Good choice!

That is literally a 1 out of 10 mate. And you only get one mark because it’s an original excuse. I should probably take that point away because you forgot to loosen your pedals the right way. But I’m not really in a position to judge...

What they do to you in a hospital, something more than knee operation?. It's clearly obvious that you can't control your power output anymore.I have been using my defy on the turbo the one with the irreparably damaged . drop out A mechanic had fashioned a 6mm thick washer to fit and hold the axle but inevitably the drop out has worn further.

Sorry for this been out of touch for a few weeks. What’s the procedure tomorrow just log on somewhere and ride and will I then get prompted to the meet-up or do you automatically get taken there? Once there what’s the start do we roll out together for a bit then casually not race for a lap 2 laps??
Cheers

Thanks I’ve been invited and accepted just wondered what the procedure was how to join and where the start gun goes offThis is cyclechat league in Zwift. @bridgy invite you to meet-up event. Idea of this event is ride fast as possible, next route is road to ruins 1-lap. Sure we can ride together if we can

I knew you would bite .
The pedals? I loosened and replaced the spd ‘s with some new ones I had lying around coz the springs were stiff. Those speedplays won’t frigging budge.
