I’m going to use the Neo for tonight’s event but I’ll dual record it using the Assioma pedal PM paired to a Garmin. I ran a short test last night and both looked very comparable but I screwed up starting the Garmin so the timings were off and hard to line up. I wonder if there is a market for a second hand Bkool trainer...hardly used, one owner from new

"hardly used"

What will be interesting (assuming you ran the Bkool at 100% reality, and you do the same with the NEO) is how this changes your ride strategy (i.e. less 'spinny', for more 'grindy').

For you readers out there, I recently read "Why We Sleep" by Matthew Walker. It was a very good read and it's message was, to me anyway, very powerful. It seems sleep is a very potent force for good in our bodies. Well worth a read - I've recommended it to my wife and my girls. The conclusion is below and indicates the scale of the claims it makes.

Here he is on my favourite podcast channel by Dr Rangan Chatterjee.
I’m hooked every week I listen to his podcasts.
They are brilliant https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podca...angan-chatterjee/id1333552422?i=1000444124353

I’ll have another go tonight.
I did the Carl tactic and saved my self for the hill last time.
This time I’ll put more effort into the main stage and see what I’ve got left for the hill.

Let's go for 7pm then as Ithink that suits @<Tommy> best too. I look forward to seeing you both there - and on current form, seeing you both disappear up the road too no doubt!

How do I find tonites ride?

Can't watch anyone on Zwift tonight for some reason but looks like a good CCer outing. Be interested in seeing the results - I may no longer be on the podium

thanks aaac

102:53 please.
Didn't feel anything special. It was a small field. It felt like a tough training ride, I just seemed to Pace myself well but I've ridden the same type of races with more power before. I came 13th in cat A.

Thanks for the encouragement Al and well done on the result 💪. I didn’t get much of a warm up before the race. and I could feel the first tingles of cramp, so I was too busy preying to respond 😄.

Always really cool seeing so many cc’ers pinging around the screen. I had no idea that last hill went on for so long...

113:44. That was brutal. Cocked my start up, messed on trying to catch a group then with a sore bum (longest ever Zwift ride tonight) died on Leith. Topped off with my trainer losing signal with 0.8 miles to go and nearly 3 mins stationary trying to reconnect it. AND nothing showing on Zwift Power.

Who said to do the long ones? Haha

1:20.1 for me @peterob

For a small field that's a good time Maybe look to do it again in the catch up week and see if you can find a bigger attended ride ..... you know you want to race up Leith again
