Its an awful climb, super steep at the start. I'm ridiculously slow compared to most on here. My best time is just over 20 mins for the TT

There is an event at 9.30 today and 10am 6pm and a couple later tomorrow. I might do tomorrow

I remember when Bologna first got released. I did a TT and Rach watched. For those who think I'm a little 'blue' with my language, you should have heard her.

I still hear here now, as I was about to pull past a guy with ginger hair .... or as Rach said ... "come on Whorty, farkin nail him. Ginger self-gratification artist, too farkin slow" ..... she may have been as competitive as me!

That would be fun as long as ZP doesn't 'see' it Is Bologna available as a route in "clubs" yet? I can't see it.

No unfortunately not. They expanded the amount of courses you can do in Clubs a few months ago (especially compared to Meetups, which still has a very limited selection) and you can now organise a ride/race on virtually any route, including most of the "hidden" ones like reverse routes and the after-party's, but for some reason they only added one-way around Crit City and left Bologna off the list completely.

Well I've ridden twice since dropping out of ZRL last September ... I even have a new bike which has never been ridden!!!

I am up for joining a team ... Cat D at the moment, with no real intention of dropping the hammer, as three days of pain just isn't worth it.
So if you want an old crock with dodgy knees (I don't like to talk about it you know!) as a desperate stand in, I may be available.

You'll have teams falling over each other to sign you up with a sales pitch like that

I wonder what his appearance fee will be?

Ah, darn it. I thought I recalled someone saying it was possible We can do a different route then.

I think Zwift Insider mentioned it was meant to be coming to clubs at some point, but it's not there yet.

First ride on zwift for a month was a rude awakening!. Did the hotchillie gain train where the cat C chase the Ds while being chased by the Bs no A group tonight . I entered Cat C and knew it would be tough as they go at 3.1 wgs . I managed to hang on for 15 mins then get spat out the back at a spirint and couldn't get back on so pulled the plug waited for the Bs hung on to them for about a minute then had a lonely ride to the finish to come dead last not just in the C's but the D's as well . Anyone want to sign me up I'm available

Good ride out today, had a meeting in work so cycled there, then headed south to the coastal towns of Portishead & Clevedon before turning inland and through the Gordano Valley, I then climbed a hill I've always avoided before, Naish Hill & what a b@#t@rd it is, over 500 metres long at over 13 %.

Stopped for a coffee at the great little cafe just before the Clifton Suspension Bridge, then headed home along the Bristol & Bath cycle track.

I don't think you'll command the same sort of appearance money as aleman

Haha! There is, but you can get around it by putting formatting tags in the middle of the naughty word…

I used to occasionally post on a forum where the software kicked out the words 'specialised' and 'specialist' as spam, because they contain the string 'cialis', which is apparently the name of an erectile dysfunction drug.

Did the club 50:50 ride last night. It's part off-road, part road. Good fun. Starts and ends at a pub. One guy had an eMTB.
Wasn't gonna let him get away, so I drafted him up the final (only) hill. When he turned round he was surprised to see me still there. Nobody else tried. Was very funny.
