@13 rider I think you might have accidentally swapped teams?

Yes the transfer fee was 3 bags of wine gums
I don't think we have full squad so not fussed will see if I can be bother to contact them

Debating whether to do Round 4 of Race Makuri in about 45 minutes time. It's my last chance to do it, but having already done two events today, and done all the Christmas decorating (well, the heavy lifting bits anyway - leave the actual making things look good part to the other half) I'm thoroughly knackered. 'Spose I could just cruise round and set a time - it's not a course I've done anyway, so at least I'll get the badge.

Completed the Tour of Makuri at about 2pm by doing it as a Pace Partner (oops sorry, RoboPacer) ride, then at 3:30pm did the 5th stage of Herd Winter Racing, where I took almost a minute off my Volcano KOM PR plus hit new 20 minute and 5 minute power in ZP - not my highest watts ever, but because I've lost a bit of weight, my W/kg is obviously going to be getting better regardless.

Watch out for the 4th climb I think we've all blown up going up it the the same climb every time but it just gets you in the end

Just got a reply, saying they'll move me back. At least they're quick to correct brain farts.

[EDIT]: Looks like they've applied the fix to both accounts

For whatever reason they moved us both to another team. Probably due to low attendance. Just wrote an email to race control telling them to move me back and leave the squad alone. WTF.

Pissed me right off. Not riding unless they move me back, fekin muppets.

What would you said if Team Zwift move you to Team INEOS as a compensation?

They can't afford me

They can't afford me

Also loyalty matters

I get the impression it’s a small team, not being paid, trying to organise everything who always seem very quick to respond to emails and open to suggestions. “Feckin muppets” seems harsh.

It doesn’t ! Shows in Zwift.com click on it and sends me to zp where it says it’s private

Well I did decide to do it in the end and it was brutally tough.

Was the third climb that did for me. Knew I didn’t have the energy to get into the front group at the start but eventually settled into maybe the 3rd or 4th group and stayed with them up the first two climbs but got blown out the back on the 3rd.

Rode round with one other person to the bottom of the final climb where they accelerated away but luckily another group overtook me not long after and I was able to hold on to their tails all the way to the finish. 67th across the line, 48th on ZP.

Possibly. That said, just moving people around willy-nilly, without any notice, deserves the title - bit that's just my opinion.

Best to navigate to the schedule on FRR website via phone, click the slot and it will take you to companion app right away It's a conveyor start after all so if you sign up for 19:15 now, the start won't be sooner than 19:40, I think.

'Twas a hard one, eh @Norry1? I've overdone it and had very little left for the second hill.

Indeed.
