That was horrible. I was last of 5, but I took 30s off my Bologna climb PR. Now 9:39

That is certainly an advantage of TVP, the bots. Always 'riders' around to push me harder and to chase. I had that on Rouvy too yesterday - the bots kept me pushing harder than I would had I just been on a free ride.

The ATV change to TVP is a big win for me too. I want to just jump on the bike and not have to bugger about with the laptop and cables so I'm glad they've released that generally (although I haven't had a go yet).

It's certainly good to have choice and the market is giving us that. I hope they all survive and that choice continues, because when one app gets a monopoly then that's when the customers suffer.

I think TPv is here to stay. The TP acquisition gives it proper security and seems to have "good synergy".

MyWash - well it's "adequately funded" so will probably stay unless they get bored of it.

I honestly don't know anything about any of the others though. But I fully agree, competition is good for the consumer.

That didn't look much like fun @alex_cycles 😁

I had a bit of a rant near the end. Just the race brain talking but I didn't enjoy that one as much as some of the others.
Once you're last and not catching, there's nothing left to fight for 🤦‍♂️

We finished exactly in the 10-minute wkg order I looked up on ZP last night.

Iain Sully 300 4.3 for 10 @ 70 kg
Alex Silva 282 4.14 for 10 @ 68kg
Stephen Hynes 261 4.07 for 10 @ 64 kg
Alex Eames 266 3.97 for 10 @ 67 kg

Yeah it being on ATV makes a difference! It would take a lot for me to move from zwift but definitely worth exploring what's out there.


Is BKOOL on Apple TV?
