Your in with a shout of holding on to the lead next week ,as I'm promoted out of the way 😁 , Hopefully I can do sufficiently badly to get relegated for the last round 😂

Couldn't make last night unfortunately - I accidentally got myself a new job, so was in a different part of the country interviewing

Hopefully can make next week, although looking at the course I'm not sure I'll be looking forward to it

Choose a race in the week, cruise round to tank your ZRS, then back into the league. All the cool kids are doing it So I'm told

Yeah, but I'll win both leagues by default because I'm the only rider able to compete in every round (barring injury).

Did Jarvis Island testride today, interesting experience. Didn't know that island is gonna trembling when you enter it. Gonna test next time if Tacx Neo 2T gives any road feel effect for that as well.

I believe you only get that entrance once , Interesting little route (did the classic ). Amazing that was the road that existed on zwift only 10 years ago

I se carbon monoxid is the new performance enhancer (!)

How many of us have a trainer beside a boiler 🤔

PSA- do not inhale carbon monoxide

There was some talk of CO rebreathing by UAE and Jumbo Visma during this years TdF but the discussion on in blew over without too much fuss, certainly in the local media.
I once had my trainer set up in an outdoor porch with the laptop perched on a condensing boiler but never thought to pipe the fumes directly into my face 🤦‍♂️

Maybe it's better for me if that happens only once, I have use to suffer motion sickness. Not for sure, maybe I still do

I'm back on Zwift for the winter ... two smart turbos later. Jarvis Island is a bit colourful.

The Kickr V3 was losing resistance and, when I tightened the belt, I found the bearings were noisy. It's a learning curve and winter repair.

So I picked up a Tacx 2900 and it's so hard to pedal I'm guessing it needs the belt looking at. Another (but expensive) learning curve.

I've also got an Elite Direto off a contact and am using that. It's been sat almost unused since new, like the Tacx, however has freed up nicely.

I'm still classed as a B category, so will need to sort that out using ZRS once track racing finishes for the winter next Tuesday.

Training with carbon monoxide, I presume that car is not best option for that. Term pain cave would have a new meaning. Seriously speaking, is there a long term research what that might cause for a body as a long term.

Jetblack have just released the Victory turbo.
