@eloy I was planning on doing that ride. All depends on what time I go to bed 😎.
I just added you guys as friends in Zwift. I'll try to join your ride when I log in.
Sorry guys, I’m just going to sleep now 🥱
we’ll miss you bobby... Dan i’m getting on the start grid now btw my cell is 347-225-1058 if you wanna txt
Well, I woke up right at 8. Gladly the bike was already set up, so I managed to get in, but couldn't catch up to you Eloy. 

Ended up having to get off to turn an extra fan on and refill a bottle, so the gap only increased. I ended up finishing 469th. 
While I don't like the biasedness of this forum title (ZWIFT)...

I made a Trainerroad team, just in case if you want to see me failing my workouts ;P

Join if you're a TR user! 
Also im gonna start making some custom workouts, so imma add that to the team libraries...
Cold day off for the holiday meant a zwift race today. I picked a good long one, 69km, which was a bit more than I could chew. 

About 10km, I missed the break and in zwift it's really hard to catch it. 6 guys end up going up the road. Really had to just grind and let people fall back. By the end I got 4 guys over 40ks and struggled to get the last two bc they were working together. Zwift racing is honestly more akin to time trialling and it just felt like it was what you had. 

Avg 292w for 1:42, with 60mins at 302w and 30mins at 309. (Low key brag,ik)

If y'all wanna do some zwift races in the winter let me know, this was alot of fun.

Damn dude its only January!
HOTNESS.
You’re a beast @cpulvidente
I like those numbers
will jump on the tour de watopia at 1pm in case anyone wants to join — social distancing ftw 
@eloy damn I would have joined you, but I’m about 10 min away from home.
i'm gonna try and get this all set up in time for 1:30 est
was a solid group ride, will post next time i’m planning on riding. Pretty sure they’ll be ton of zwift in our near future.
Anyone have good results for a group chat line while Zwifting?
Anyone interested in a ride this am?


Never really like the voice chat stuff while zwifting, something about hearing people's breath directly in my ears...

People tried discord at one point, not sure if that's still a thing. Can always set up a zoom or slack, etc and post it up for group trainer sessions.
some groups still use discord, but I think most just lean on texting the app.

On another note, it is quite gorgeous out in NYC this weekend, and as the city has been quarantined the last 48ish hours, people are enjoying the parks big time.
50 and sunny in NYC is hard to beat. I'm starting down several weeks of 3 stay at home kids so Zwift and a large bottle of scotch are how I'm planning to cope.
zwift & quarantinis! is just like a martini, but you drink it home.

I was at the beach today , it was busy , so many family with kids 
fantastic day
Thinking of hopping in the B Group of the 3R Laguardia Loop tonight at 6:30 if anyone is interested! 
I'll try and join you.
i’m likely to join stage 3 group ride tomorrow 7am — i’m signed up for the alpe one, but could change it depending on work, so lmk if you are joining and prefer the shorter stage — the alpe takes about an hour plus the time to get there (so budget 1:30-1:45 ish)
That's 6am my time; a little rough for me. If I can figure out how to join these damn rides I'll be in more often.
planning on doing Tour of Watopia Stage 3 - Shorter Ride today at 7:01pm (in 30 minutes) in case anyone wants to join me along with 400+ other riders across the globe

Results, bro? Also #picsoritdidn'thappen and while I'm at it... #looksharp?

Just because we're living through the zombie apocalypse doesn't mean the rules don't appy!
