The other day I saw a big group in zwift with all of them using the same jersey (an jersey that everyone has available but I guess they organized to pick the same).

Then it occurred to me, what if for races pick the same in-game jersey? so it feels like there is a team out there...

On another note, I kind of want to do the HR-Watopia, which are longer races as they feature climbs. I did a recon of stage 1, it took me 1:40 for the 45km at a good pace. Stage 3 features a longer ride with more climbs. So it will be interesting. Just hesitant of actually doing stage 1 given the inconvenient schedules. I'd like to see you guys for stage 2 and 3 though! Please let me know if you do it so we can organize which time we will pick.

Ok let's do this - free to join, but limited to 40 minutes. I'm not a big fan of zoom but it's free an easy to set up.

^they're warning that dialin by phone might not work.

I couldn't get my devices coordinated to get Zoom going. 

Solid racing tonight everyone. Things were really sticking together. Awesome to see so many dudes out and about! I think Diego is right though, maybe some kit coordination would be useful! 

Totally agree with Diego and Rob- I ended up using a smaller screen tonight and between that and everyone being in the same kit, I couldn’t tell who was who.

Otherwise, real solid race everyone!

or max headroom haircuts...

let's just pick a jersey that works, for Sunday, I propose the 'Basic 1' jersey which I think all of us would have in our zwift garage...

Race was fun, Richard and Jules looked sharp on crazy pixely bikes, the start was, as expected, crazy town hard, but then it felt like it settled and I managed to keep my HR under control. Matt looked strong and Rob put a crazy dig under 2km to go. Kevin bested me for 6th, I finished 7th, Matt was 4th, Tommy 9th, Rob 10th...

No win like last week, but 5 of us in the top 10. 

Regardless of the results, the best part is just being able to race and ride with all of you, that is definitely the cool/best part about it. It is so awesome sweet!

Here's a shot of the pack mid race, Richard is specially notorious in his pixel bike.

stay healthy. stay awesome.

Lol

So i just used Ventoux on RGT for some intervals; wow that road is diabolical. Keeps getting steeper!

I'm trying to set up an RGT ride for tomorrow NOON Eastern time, with a Zoom. It'll either be laps of Prospect Park or NYAC.

We need five total to make it work, so please RSVP if you're interested. I'll post details as soon as I figure out which of the two rides it is.

We have five so far...

Let's ride virtual 9W tomorrow April 4th at noon.

Look sharp lads!

(Jules lives in Central time so don't be freaked out by the earlier start time - it's NOON NEW YORK TIME)

RGT Cycling (free) you need a monitor app and a phone app.

Ride invite (register now, because they won't start the ride for us until we get to five)

Zoom Meeting

just signed up for the ride. see ya soon.

Signed up, you'll all drop me in 5 miles.

Excellent! We've hit our quorum so the ride is on. Good thing too because

I’m in for 9W ride. Is that James Reeder on the Paterberg right now?

you found another james reeder??

It was your doppelgänger. Everyone looks alike on virtual worlds 

We had an old school ride today with me, @Jeffrey White @Jeff Condon @PatrickGrehan@""David Yang" today.

Even KCC Veteran and green jersey hog Chris Yack tried to join but had technical difficulties.

Strava thinks the ride was real but we know better

The zoom worked well but I had to restart it after 40 minutes.

Overall it was a blast seeing some friendly faces and trying to figure out where we were. A mini-map would have been helpful, and the "magic roads" need some serious smoothing.

Good times lads!

Is anybody interested in trying to do a long zwift ride this coming week? Mayne somebody who has a zoom account that can support a meeting of greater than 40 minutes...?

I could be convinced to do a long zwift ride this week. If we use Google Hangouts, we can go for as long as we want for free. 

Incredible

I missed the tweets and announcements, but was on zwift while he was riding, gave him a 'ride on' the amount of texts and "omg you are a beast, let's go, let's go..." was on high!

Let's pick a day for this! 

Let's see. I'll be home.... pretty much every day. 

But I do have a video conference tomorrow and Friday at 1. Could be down for a midweek-er or a weekend too.
