me too haveing trouble with computrainer

for route do "The PRL Full" to sync turning. i'm going to start soon. you can select me and join, right?  i'm just doing z1...

still

have to search for you guys...needed to restart the macbook

We finally got Discord voice working! And it was great trash talking and coordinating with Brendan and Yackintosh. Much easier than typing.

Good times!

I guess if the snow stays on the ground for the weekend we're on for kissena race on Saturday morning. Discord voip is highly recommended!

cuz I can't get enough of Brendan's heavy breathing...sounds like a fat kid at a buffet

still haven't mastered the ability to exert myself without breathing. working on it

Who is on today? Is there a regular time?

9:15 is the time i don't think i'm going to make it, i'll be on later doing a structured workout

Sorry guys my laptop froze so rebooting. Will be on but can't join the ride

my laptop froze...

You had a full minute on me at the base...I took a flyer at the bottom hoping to close the gap and sit on you...it sucked....but box hill is really a great little bump to work on power intervals.  Just steep enough to be able to stay in the big ring and grind at about 85 rpms

My daughter had a dentist appointment at 10:30 so I had to ride early. Sorry I missed you guys.

so i think i've decided to not use erg mode when i'm doing workouts that have threshold or higher efforts.  i find that i perceive it to be more difficult.  what do other people do?

I double the erg.

Screw that...Yacks QUADRUPLES IT !!!!

Just realized the way I wrote it was ambiguous. What I meant is that I find erg mode more difficult,  so I don't use it anymore for intense efforts  

The CRCA Race at 7:15 Wednesday night is a firecracker

i learned something extremely important:  http://zwiftblog.com/turn-off-zwifts-startup-music-easy-hack/

Heh done. That startup song is the worst.

remember to use a fender.  the london course rains a lot.

In other news my trainer tire somehow developed a sidewall cut and the tube exploded in the middle of a zwift ride. Virtual training just got...

...real.

you're suffering an inappropriate number of zwift mechanicals.  didn't you also drop your chain?

Yup, just before the last sprint interval so that was awesome.

Lots of family activities/obligations prevented me from riding outside in the glorious weekend weather.  Not that I was complaining, I was eating pizza and ice cream and having a great time outside, but every time a bright flash of spandex and bare legs went by I got a little more sad knowing that I'd be sitting in my basement later that night riding on Zwift.

Oh well oh smell.

Can't make it to the Meet Kissena Ride outside tomorrow so will be doing the usual Saturday Morning Zwift session.

They're testing out a beta course for our ride (reverse London Loop) and requested that we keep an eye out for bugs, e.g. if the group turns in unison, etc.

I did a nice little race this morning...stayed with the ride the leader for the duration...as per instructions based on my FTP...sprinted and came out of my pedal at the end.  It was a really good time...paced us up box hill twice and it was generally a really solid ride.  I could have gone a little faster but overall my power looked good.  Even figured out how to register and get my name in the results.  Yacks likes

Well... I was doing the CRCA race...holding my own in the top 10...riding next to Ray Diaz mostly....then at the 13 & 17 mile marks my smart trainer dropped contact and I had to stop and re sync...I chased hard...but you know how that goes. Felt like I was in an episode of "Black Mirror"... Still when I looked at my watts compared to Ray's they are 1 watt apart.  Gonna be cold again this weekend so Zwift race updates are all your gonna see for awhile.. Le Yacks
