Loving the women staring out opponents before launching an attack!

Noticed that too. Maybe I'm wrong but I have noticed too that in a men's race team work is more visible than women's race. Men's race have more teammate's help their captain than in a women's race. Maybe men's teams have much more riders to select the best group.

I may be wrong but I get the impression that, with less money in the pot, women's racing is still a bit more "real".

It seems to me that when the big money goes into any sport, the sport is compromised

Absolutely I agree that. I think it's also great that women's cycling have more and more visibility on Eurosport.

It was probably deciseconds or centiseconds which was calculate and was Kopecky's side.

12 September?! That's quite soon. I think we should try and get organised. I'm definitely available, and still a B.

Sounds like @IrishAl is hoping for spots of summer on Tuesday evenings. Is your subscription active?

@bridgy, @Girafitti, @Rich A, @Ketty?

@alex_cycles, @Norry1 - I think you said you prefer going to bed early?

Who did I miss? Any friends and family members we could lean on?

Hi guys

Firstly and most importantly, sending best wishes and thoughts to @Randyberlin - awful to hear what you've been going through recently, and I hope we hear some good news from you soon. Thanks for the update @Brusgaard

As for next season of ZRL I am up for it if we have enough to put a B Cat team together- I'm a bit race rustybut have been doing a few recently to try and build my race fitness back up again

Nice one. You got the first Brae spot on. Looked like if there would have been points you could have had it
Are you enjoying the steering? Nice race. I might have a go at that one later in the week. I've got 4 laps of the Sgurr in a ladder race tomorrow

Has anyone else with a Neo Smart bike tried the steering feature which has now been enabled via the buttons on the hoods? I've tried it a couple of times but found it awful to the point of unusable. Really random in its responsiveness, so sometimes you move when you press the steering button and sometimes you don't - or you think you haven't and then a few seconds later you shoot off in that direction unexpectedly.

I'm not sure if it's just bad in general or an issue with my particular bike/setup?

Cheers Alex, really like it the steering. It does help and is advantageous on super twisty courses.

Just ran out of puff on the second Brae, good result for me. Numbers are coming back up

Michael has it. The Zwift steering hoods are slightly progressive, you can slow steer or fast depending on pressure on the button s
