Jeff, it seems to be quicker reacting to power input. This could be masked by Zwift update, where resistance variation is more noticeable between transitions. It's no worse I would say.

Liking the new Zwift graphics. Bkoolers and first time users of Zwift said they didn't know where they were in the course. Zwift listened and implemented

Yes, the group races so far has been great. I no longer feel like I haven't got a clue what's going on and who I'm racing against/with. One step closer to ditching Bkool entirely.

I was referring to the improvements. Because some that stuff put me off in the past.

Besides, I trust Jeff, Andy and Dean just fine

I'm looking forward to the winter training to be honest. But I've got a fair old wait for the new turbo to turn up.

Yeah it must be a real struggle to find the motivation on a top of the range Neo!

I'd of got the neo myself but getting the wattbike made it a bit easier to get the missus on board

Someone unbiased and not bitter about losing to us BKool Pro riders

My concern is that it's a one way transition according to what I read. Decisions. Decisions. It's supposed to be more accurate, but.... Faster transition would be good, I've never thought it was bad, but just that it could be slightly better.

As far as the new graphics. Definitely helpful, particularly the ability to zoom in/out. THough I must admit the new map reminds me a *hell* of a lot of mario kart (my son was a big fan). I'm sure the bkoolers will point that out :-)

An extremely tight schedule today forced me to skip the 6th ZA workout and go straight to #7 (it was about 15 minutes shorter). Damn, that was tough. A total of 8 minutes at 125% of FTP with 3 minutes in between at 97% of FTP for "rest" .
I only managed 6 out the 8 minutes.

I was going to to the social endurance ride but felt compelled to join the zsun 3 sisters ride. It was a mixed group and we had to keep stopping which is not great when you are going up mountain and have to restart. A drop out near the end brought my ride to an end. Workout or race tomorrow night and then proper taper friday

i saw a load of you waiting halfway up the mountain !? thought it was something to do with the training regime like a hill start or something - i know some came past at 7k/w what made me sit down

I started to pull away with some of them but we were asked to slow and I did. They were putting out more than I could anyway. Sometimes the legs don't want to know about 4w/k let alone 5 or 6. Put stopping for 2 mins with fans on and legs tightening is not good, at least not these aged legs.
