Don't forget to get to the start pen early to get at the front - and be up at power with 2 seconds to go before the start. Then have 6 cups of coffee and some speed :smile:

Yeah, I was at the back of pen last week , also not paying full attention on countdown , and I seemed to be fighting all way round . Hope to see you on front line of pen tomorrow .

Nothing to hand but when I was looking at power pedals I came across a few people complaining about (I think) battery covers and a lack of accuracy/unreliability.

To be fair, there were also people very happy with them, so I'm interested if anyone has some real user experience to offer or to compare against other brands such as Powertap

Hi all. Just catching up and seen my name quoted in reference to the assioma pedals. I can’t really complain at all about them. I’ve the Uno variety - left sided. In terms of reliability I’vehad them just over a year and half now - probably recharged them a handful of times so batttery life for me isn’t an issue. Recharging is done with a simple magnetic contact so now plugging in or removing charging port covers.

I terms of accuracy the only thing I can say is that now I’ve upgraded turbo to the Neo2 I’ve found an average 4.5% difference (neo2 lower). I’ve read around 3% can be attributed to drivetrain losses, and guessing that the tolerance on both assioma and neo2 is +/-1% then this would explain the 4.5% I am seeing. End result I’m now a high B rather than low A ^_^, and if I ever get to ride my bike outdoors again then I’ll have to remember my FTP numbers are different on the road compared to Zwift.

I’ve read the comments about cleat compatibility - this for me is a pain as I have 4 bikes, two pairs of cycling shoes, but now one pair is dedicated to the assioma equipped bike so I’ve no spare pair for the odd occasion I get a good soaking.

I’ll be there......I haven’t looked at the course yet but I think our tactics should be that you go for the sprints again but instead of pushing it when you completed it you can wait for me in my group hopefully and latch on. I’ll do the same on the Kom and see where your at.
Does that sound like a dads army plan or what :laugh::laugh::laugh::okay:^_^

A foolproof system if the first sprint is early! :laugh: Do we know where they will be yet?

Hi, I’m new to Zwift and racing, am friends with Joffey, could I join the the team and ride with you all? I’m CATD and came 11th in my first race according to Zwift power. I enjoy riding for fun and it would be good to be part of a team.
Let me know if I need to do anything else.
Thanks

Can we welcome my good friend Tim into the Cyclechat Team? He’s hoping that he can race for us tomorrow night in Cat D... I can’t remember how you join the team on Zwift Power though? Help! :okay:

Welcome Ketty :welcome:

Yeah no problem joining the team. Simply search for CycleChat in ZwiftPower and join us :okay:

There's a league that many of us (including Joffey) have just started racing in (first stage was lat week). It's the DBR league (you'll find it at 6:15 tomorrow in the ZwiftPower events). @Marino.g and @Joffey (the other CycleChat D cats who raced last week) will be pleased to have you on the team I'm sure. Just put 'CycleChat' somewhere in your Zwift name and try to choose a Zwift kit containing as much green as you can (so teammates can easily recognise you). The DBR league awards points to the top number of finishers of each category, as well as points for intermediate sprints and KoM's.

We are also compiling a CycleChat league using the results from the DBR league - to help engender a bit of healthy competition and banter amongst ourselves :laugh:

Any questions just ask away on here.

Edit: There;'s usually an unofficial 'excuses' competition, chaired by @<Tommy> that certain individuals with dodgy knees etc like to make use of leading up to each race.

Welcome on board Tim the merrier the better.
Hope you have some fun from the racing and I don't mind if you want to take the podium on Monday.
I can't remember how you join on Zwift power either but I'm sure that a bright spark on here can help somewhere....

To join the team I think you just choose 'Teams' from the top menu, search for 'CycleChat' and click 'join' from the top-right.
