  1. Looks like a two horse race this avie so far Dex! My money is on you. I will leave my racing legs in the shed today maybe.....
  2. Rouvy are improving some of their interfaces, but i agree they need to have a reasonably customizeable box somewhere on the screen. You are riding blind apart from your HR. I am sure they will develop something if they receive enough requests. I hope. But being indoors, the speed is not a representable value as you can never be 100% sure of the route, road surface quality, cornering at speeds etc, so you may need to dial back your expectations there. The fish eye effect is on a lot of videos, but not all. I have a PC secondary screen which does not affect me too much. I have seen some of the TACX videos and they are nice but expensive and limited. Yes there are two apps, not an issue for me. They are developing and it will take time on a small scale IT setup i guess they have. They do not have the money of Zwift based on how long it takes them to design. The AR one needs a lot of UI work, but the workouts one has a lot of other interval workouts etc, most without video. Video quality is a hit and miss from them, i keep the quality low to be in line with my expectations....... Sorry you did not enjoy it, but i think they will impove some options. As a subscriber, send a list of improvements for them o consider. I will send a list as well generally in line with your comments.
  3. Wednesday? 19:00? Now they have ANT+ it is much better. Keen to see what the draughting effect is like. If i can keep up.
  4. Getting tired of waiting. Have all the parts fitted on my stage now waiting to be swapped over........
  5. What a dump!
  6. And Ant + is finally coming next week on Beta for Rouvy AR. About time!!
  7. Would have been a great bike to have. i kind of like the flat surfaces, radar invisible bike.... Hi Tech stuff man!
  8. That was fun. But i really know how much my power to weight ratio is an anchor around my neck.
  9. Do we know if there will be some cameras looking at the cyclists on their bikes in their "studios"? It will be fun to see what they do.
  10. Live electronic racing, it will be like watching the gamers playing E-sports...... Cant be worse than watching trotting on the hose racing channel. Thats the only other live channel i found.
  11. I emailed Rouvy and asked about the drafting in race mode, they said it will be available in the summer, so sometime in August based on us in the South i guess. Hopefully will be sooner. Edit spellcheck
  12. Has a race been scheduled for the Cullinan to Tonteldoos or are people just starting a ride and starting at 15:00?
  13. Yoh yoh yoh!! Tell you what, i will look for it on Rouvy...and ride for an hour or two this afternoon with the crazies, no way i will do the whole thing this weekend. i am just not that fit right now.
  14. I think i will look for the A d H descent instead!
  15. haha, he is rockin' and rollin' man. It is like watching Goldmember doing his splits and leg stretches..... It does look a little disconcerting
  16. When i had my sufferfest subscription and rouvy, they felt almost exactly the same. Not sure why you are getting this. Check all of your settings and do the calibrate with Rouvy as well.
  17. Rouvy needs more rides with 200 to 300 m ascent, more realistic and doable for the average Joes.
  18. Seeing as Jackals is taking a break, I set one up for 16:0 today after work. About an hour for ride from Gordons bay to Pringle Bay. 279 m of ascent at a max of 7%. Look for Gordans Bay, seems a spell check on the name was missing. All welcome.
  19. To those arranging these rides, thanks, all comments from me are meant in jest. Not sure how many i will do this week as i have a slight sprain in the back. Too many Rouvy career climbs......
  20. That would be funny if it were not so true..... #someofusarenotbuiltforclimbing
  21. Those bumps hurt the legs. Clint, please don't choose routes that go up all the way. Rouvy has like a million of them....
  22. Sounds good for another ride today. Make it after 16:00, so "work" will not be upset.... as for my performance Dexter, i was way off from that annoying Muishond.........
  23. Think you should also disconnect the Kawasaki from your trainer too. You looked like you were pulling 450 to 500 watts straight off the start line. FTP at 160%.
  24. My thoughts too on the rain.But some of us are hardcore.
