I can't make it Thursday unfortunately - feel free to set up a meet up though and if it goes on the league I'll try and do it another time

We could just join a race together for practice.
There is a 6 o'clock H&H tomorrow that I could be tempted to join. Love this format (especially now I'm back in C). @Brusgaard often joins these races too .... anyone else up for it?

Count me out as I'm on football camp from tomorrow until Sunday. After almost 2 weeks of vacation in Florida, I'm not really fit for any race at the moment.
Having upped my weight in Zwift by 2 kg and upped the difficulty slider a notch or two as well hasn't helped either.

What is an H&H?
H&M I know being a classy bloke.
HH I know being an outdoors type.
I also know about Preperation H.
Buy not H&H.
Hare n hounds race, staggered start times
D go first, C a few minutes later and so on.
The handicap times work quite well with A normally catching all in the last mile or two. It also allows the stronger B's and C's tag on the A's and hopefully win their category
As Andy says, it's a Hair and Hounds race. Bit like our TTT that we used to do. I like these as the C groups do try to stay together (some of the weaker riders will drop off the group but 90% will stay together) so it's a good format to practice drafting etc in Zwift. These races tend to be on the flatter Zwift courses (like tonight on London flat) as these are the easier to stick together on, although there are a couple of little lumps to practice holding power whilst not losing your group.
Def worth a try.
This is all very different to H&E which is a magazine I saw for sale in Smiths recently and was, well, a little disturbing

Hey Bob, that was weird it looked like your post went under Bertys Avatar.
Saw that you was on the ride Lee but didn't see you in the group of B's that caught us (that seemed to be pushing A power!). Was you with the group of A's chasing us down?
That was quite hard work. The surging was difficult to maintain. The B group dropped me and a few others 4 times, and I chased back on 3 times .... the 4th time though, legs just didn't have it in them
The pace up until then was fairly easy, and could have stayed with the C's all day .... but boy did those B's put the hammer down
