Like a Dick I sprinted to the Banner

Well done Bridgy. You definitely won by a couple of bike lengths. Not sure why @BurningLegs is a few seconds back? Looked to be in front of me by the end.

Thanks for videoing @Joffey ...I really hope you have a dog or something?

I think I used everything to stay with you folks up the second Kom and didn't get a powerup so happy to finish in the top group. Unlucky Pete and great ride Bob

It's to do with that stupid thing Zwift can't be bothered to fix with meetup races where the finish line is slightly different for everyone depending where exactly they started. Kind of irrelevant that you started a length or2 behind after a 40 minute race together anyway!!

Hot mess of a finish...

Well done Paul 👍👍

‘Special K’s group sneaking up at the end 😄

I nearly bridged the gap, got to one second

pissed off I lost the wheel over top of KOM.
Next week!

Terrible shame about your technical issues Pistol Pete...

I didn’t have the means to activate my helmet powerup - do you guys have your phones on your handlebars?

Edit; although it did seem like a couple of people went off early by 3 of 4 seconds so maybe that's it?

Thanks for videoing @Joffey ...what's the noise in the bacbground?

I know it sounds like sex noises but it’s actually a fearsome animal prowling and drinking out of his bowl...

My brain did a massive fart at the end. I was watching the banner and the countdown timer and I couldn’t work out what was going on. I actually made up some descent ground in the sprint but too little too late...

It was actually good fun riding in a nice big pack, despite all my in races moaning. But it did make me think a climb up the volcano or epic kom might be slightly more eventful?

Apple TV you can hit the remote. Although there's a 20% of turning the bloody thing off. I got pretty good powerups throughout then nothing at the end. Should've held onto the van.

Maybe the idea of joining an A race makes sense. Great course though, bit of everything

Many thanks to @Brusgaard for waiting for me and towing me round! That was tough

Will watch your vid in the morning @Joffey thanks for recording.

I feel robbed! On screen I took some scalps in a sprint to the blue finish and I thought 2nd But in Zwift results I am fifth so last in the sprint from the group (as usual!)

The look on his face doesn’t suggest it wasn’t sex noises

I use my Apple TV remote- mounted on my handlebars and protected by my patented 3D printed* sweat-proof "Don't accidentally press the wrong button and quit out of Zwift" ATV Remote cover. Works a treat.
