@Joffey sorry I did read your posts from a couple of pages back when you posted it but I didn’t respond at the time. Very best of luck with the fostering mate. I really mean that.

On a side note I just tried to write fostering and predictive text assumed I was attempting to spell ‘fisting’. I’m not sure what that says about my search history. But let’s not dwell on that eh!…

All the best amigo!

Cheers Tommy. We met them on Saturday and they are moving in Friday. Quite the whirlwind. Pretty sure when they arrive my finances will get a fisting

A side note. @JuhaL Did you just subscribe to Ed's YouTube channel? I was watching and I thought I saw your name pop up as a new subscriber

Yes I did. Ed seems to race almost every day.

Yes I did. Ed seems to race almost every day.

He'll need to, racking up 20 hours of riding per week

20 hours, then I'm not surprised that he is done hill climb course records. Impressive performance he have.

Cheers Guys yes it's done stage 8 FRR at little time trail to hairpin 5 of the Alpe with a lead in ,1.23.03 6th/9 on zwift power .I am being to worry about myself as I enjoyed that !!!! . I could just ride at my tempo ignore everyone else ( nearly ) and ride my own race . As I'd got to hairpin 5 it would be rude to not ride to the top and was rewarded with a new PB of 1.10.38 nearly 6 mins quicker than the only time I've done it previously and with 7 days of hard racing in my legs I think my fitness has improved . I was rewarded at the top with a pair of gloves and a feather power up !!!! Both really useful not

6 minutes off your PB on the heaviest TT frame? With no power-ups? After a week of racing every day? Flippin 'eck!

I personally noticed that these series really supercharges fitness gains - just make sure not to taper off too aggressively. I'm sure you already noticed that after the previous one

Cheers Peter ,like I say only done the Alpe once before March this year 1 month into my zwifting so I wasn't surprised at the PB the scale of it possiblely . Like you rest day tomorrow,Wtrl smash fest Tuesday then hopefully back to outdoor riding which is mainly zone 2/3 stuff

I did the Alpe for the 19th time today. I’m toying with the idea of celebrating getting my ‘Masochist’ badge by doing the 24th and 25th on the same ride… if I can find a spare 2.5 hours!

FRR results done and dusted.

Stefan Kirchmair came out victorious with a time of 07:42:57.659.

I got 09:19:10.821. 46th of 56 people in category that did all stages. 170th of 366 on combined GC.

Funny enough, beat one guy by 0.014s

Full results of all CC'ers who took part in at least one stage, sorted by position in category:

I have no idea how I managed to finish so highly on the Polka Dot jersey standings considering I only took part in half the stages, but I'll take it.
