@ColinJ

See how your turbo will move with tennis balls

That looks pretty good to me!

A little movement for gentle efforts and a more significant amount when sprinting.

Similarly to @Whorty I suspect i'll be back pm zwift shortly, just keen to explore some of the free apps for a little while and the timing works with the annual renewal. I'll still be about here as I have no life

(Ah hem....check out Bkool...)

What happened with Bkool? I remember a lot of you using it years ago, but then I hid the indoor cycling forums. When I looked back in here a few months back it seemed that it is mainly Zwift now.

Sorry. I was being a smartass. This forum is a group that split off the Bkool forum. ( https://www.cyclechat.net/threads/team-bkool-cyclechat.144689/page-4530#post-7344377 ).
Please disregard the above post.

Edit: I do ride in Zwift also. Just not that often. Mostly Rouvy and Bkool with Training peaks. The king of multi platforms is @Brusgaard

I see what you are getting at, but I am still curious about Bkool; it seems that at some point while I wasn't looking in it here it ceased to BeCool!

It still hasn't transferred to ATV else I may have signed up for the odd month.

Yeah I wouldn't mind trying BKOOL but the lack of an app for ATV means it is down the pecking order

It went through a long period of providing huge advantage to its own Bkool turbo and dis advantaging every other trainer on the market. Then there were endless software bugs which made riding on the platform extremely frustrating to say the least.

Then many moved over to Zwift, which had its own, albeit tiny issues.

Zwift had the big numbers of riders, so there was and is always someone to compete against.

Another hours Z2 whilst lungs are clearing- a bit harder than expected due to jumping on bike directly after tea.

I did the second half of my HERD Omnium series today. It was bloody hard 3 races over 2 hours.
I've destroyed my vELO, but at least I got some TSS

I saw some of your events, you did look to be suffering

Glasgow was evil and then I was toast. But I finished.

If I'd known it was going to be quite that horrible I might not have done it, but I like to finish what I start, if I can. And I just about could
