Zwift Chat

[Milzy]

I'd like to do longer races like say 50 miles or so. I don't think there's much call for that though on Zwift. People just want to bang off the Rev limiter for an hour or less. Zwift races are crit races or crits with hills.

Contact Sticky over at ZP. He is a top class A cat rider. I see him doing races up to 100 miles

@Del C spoke to wife and she reminded me (!) that I shouldn't commit to racing a specific time twice a week whilst the lockdown is ongoing as we have no carer available and I'm needed to do 'stuff'. I'm going to have to be really annoying and say assume I can't do it and if you need a C on the day let me know and I'll see if I can join. Hopefully if we can get the carer back onboard at some stage I'll be able to commit more.

For now I'll stick with Monday's DBR race as missing one of those won't break the ride for others.

No worries.

Wife has to come first, especially at this point in time.

I think it's a looking a bit doubtful that we could get a TTT team organised right now.

There's a few people who'd like to ride, but can't absolutely commit. There's also the DBR league running on Monday, which make things more difficult. And the recent good weather is a draw to ride outside.

Thanks to @IrishAl for his generous offer to help enter a CC team. I'm more than happy to look at this again later in the year if enough people are interested and the timing is better for people.

I'm still keen to try a TTT myself. There is an option to enter WTRL individually and be assigned to a team. While that's not as good as riding with teammates you know, it gives me a chance to see how it all works and without pressuring other people to join me. So, I'll probably try that route either this week or next.

Del, you B or C on ZP?

I'd give it a shot.

I'll have a go Del, although I'm not on discord .

@Marino.g you know you‘ll be DQ tomorrow, regardless of your performance, right?

Yeah I know I’m helping the D riders beat the rider .JB DBR.
I thought it would be pointless to enter the C group because even a good performance would still put me in the bottom 5.

Entering the wrong Cat = 0 points. Entering the right C cat (and finishing) = at least 1 point, and probably more with the low turnout so far.

If I ride in C and not push it too hard that would probably demote me back to the D group and get maybe 1 or 2 points
If I helped the D group in stead and @Joffey or @steverob won it and also helped them in the sprints that could get them 25 points or more and hopefully get me back to D if my time is recorded for ZP.
That’s my logic but I’m willing to do what’s best for the CC team.👍

I’ll leave it to the C team to decide. So far only Michael has signed up in C-cat.

It is in my Companion app. Quit the app and reload it, and if it doesn’t show, check your FILTERS. Otherwise sign up using ZP.
