Martin, contact Sticky by posting a message in the comments for the race results

Now done this - and he replied very promptly but saying it can't be fixed.

Looks like I am fated to not do well in this league - that is 2 events where technical issues have stopped me competing :evil:

Now entered the British Cycling Race at 12:20 - and swapped my Lead Team to my local club WLRCC - so will check it can toggle back and forward.

Good luck with the race.......... Virginmedia permitting!

Be interested to see if you can toggle the team back and forward. I've been thinking of racing with my club as well!

When ever I lose broadband connection, I up my effort for a period in the hope it reconnects before I blow up- this might keep you in contact with your pack.

You could also have your phone if using a different provider on tether, waiting in standby to jump connections

Found it now.

Half the Cyclechat B team wiped out by Virginmedia after 0.5km :cursing:

Yes, and my friend Torben had a turbo error around the 10-11 km mark, so he dropped out soon after. That'll teach him not to drop me! ^_^

His turbo got stuck at around 300w (4.0w/kg) and no matter if he turned the pedals or not, it kept saying 4.0w/kg. He found it most fair to quit the race. You can actually see him doing constantly 4.0 in my video in the ranking on the right, just before he leaves the race.

Any idea what happened? He is using an AppleTV 4K and the Tacx Flux 2, of course via bluetooth.

I’ve gone for a little spin today and all seems fine with the interwebz 👍👍

On a side note there’s been a lot of headset talk the last week or so. I’m at home this week. And avoiding paperwork at all costs has led me to clearing a cupboard where I found a set of these.

I think I paid £50 a couple of years ago. They have a newer version out and I can’t find these for sale in the Uk. But if anyone wants a set I’ll do them at mates rates £20 + pp? Unused in unopened box. Pm me if you like the look of them

I did for about a minute - but the dropout was more like 10-12 minutes.

That's a unique form of doping! :biggrin:

Yes I saw he'd also not completed the course and wondered why. I didn't think that Virginmedia could black out parts of Denmark as well!

Sometimes is hard to locate the problems, could be interference in a bluetooth signal. If that is happened constantly it might be good reason to do test with ant+ connections, using laptop for example if it works any better. Apple tv seems to be bit complicated device for indoor training, some people it work and some people it cause issues.

Hey you Zwift addicts. I've noticed a big frame per second drop over the last few weeks. I think it may be due to Zwift been more busy than ever before. Anyone got this?
I've ordered an out door Ethernet cable I'm going to route underground and hard wire the PC in my garage.

Did you try to ride offline as a test?.

Yes, many riders in the same race will take its toll on your computer and the graphics card. Zwift only show 100 nearest riders, but for some low end systems that might be too much. I rarely have any severe stuttering, apart from the starts with 100s / 1000s of riders in the same pen.
