Zwift Chat

Ah Ok - can you explain how you do that please @Norry1 ?

I press my lap button (left hand side of unit on my Edge 800) and set one of my data fields as Lap average power. Simples.

presume its reading a power meter and not neo - or would it pick up the neo ?

 

[Norry1]

Surely Smart Turbos output the power to external head units? How else does Zwift know the power? As it happens I am using postmaster pedals but I assume it is the same.

If you fly by me i am offically doing a "recce" as well

I'd just finished and was doing a warm down when I saw you riding. Didn't spot how far you had completed already. How'd it go?

I completed the 3 lap segment in 49:44 @ 217 watts. This was on legs with a bit of fatigue so hopefully a bit more on Thursday should see me knock a minute or so off

Spent some time in S.Africa and had to round up some wild ostriches. That was a fun day

46.57. Not in @berty bassett's league but happy i couldn't really have gone much harder, really overheated towards the end.

lap 1; 15.47
lap 2; 15.57
lap 3; 15.53

2 mins faster than my ride tonight. I had more in the tank, but not enough to bring back 2 mins!

Not as livid as the Gemsbok ..... boy those dudes have a bad attitude!

We darted lions too, so the vet could check them over - that was also a fun day until they woke up whilst we were still with them I may have soiled my pants slightly that day

I was averaging a shade over 260 watts which you pushed up the Alp for longer (with lower weight) so it's definitely doable for you

I guess it depends how I feel Thursday after a rest day tomorrow. Not sure I can TT 260 watt average, but I'll give it my best shot

Nice even pacing there Michael .

I'll add yours, Lee's and everyone else's times to the league after Thurday's meetup. I'll probably ride mine solo earlier on Thursday, or tomorrow if I have time.

 

[bobinski]

Andy, you enjoying your trip?

@peterob

I rode the Surrey Hiils race solo tonight.

Time was 1.23.25

Can you update my time and also enter me as a C category rider.

Thanks!
