I read, of you want to collect the Halo bikes, it quicker to use the lower spec bikes for upgrading.

I'm only interested in the specialised Halo 😁

Hadn't really even clocked the squirrels. Are they grey or red, that'll help me decide how annoyed I'll be.

Finally got second upgrade on sl8, slow business for me! I understand it's only the first 3 that provide performance upgrades, it's xp and drops upgrades after that, which I'm not that bothered about but will accrue in due time. Might switch to aethos for my longer rides and do some climbing to get it upgraded a bit next.

Not that bothered about the order.

I think I'm about 150k away from the final upgrade on the Dogma. Will probably do the Aethos next as it must be a good climber.

That's true but I don't give a rats about the Halos. To fully upgrade a Halo bike you need to fully upgrade three bikes of that mfr AND have ten million drops.

I'm really only interested in upgrading the bikes I want to use for racing (for the time being).

But everyone has different motives and ideas. It's good to have goals to chase. I think I'm about 32% 37% of the way towards the first level of the lightning socks now.

it depends on the bike type. for the SL8, all five are performance upgrades.

Oh interesting! That's good to know, I'll keep at it

There's different levels to the socks? I must be about 50% in the factory tour thing. Once you reach the end, does it have another stage? Kind of like the Tron bike?

Pretty sure the first level of socks gives a sparks effect and some sort of small performance gain and the second level gives you an aero boost?
ZI did an article about it.

First part is 250 and second part is 850, which I calculated would be more than a year's worth of Zwifting effort.
