Hi David, Thanks for the awesome tool and the constant updates! I was wondering if you're planning on adding in a year progression page (similar to what the Elevate Plugin has)? or perhaps this is already available and I'm just not sure where to find it.

No setup for ANT+ dongle. Plug it in, open Zwift and your devices will appear

I second Cogent Industries

Apparently this is from Modders... my mate sent this to me. “The eagle got the snake”

Those tyres... they hurt me eyes

I'm running mine on an Intel NUC i3 which has a built in GPU - don't think you need a beast of a PC to be honest. From Zwift

I'm too afraid to ride there again...

I placed an old towel under this rubber mat which I purchased from Builders (in 2018, it was R170 for 1.7m) and it works perfectly. Much cheaper than a branded trainer mat.

Nicely done..! Id suggest linking Zwift (if not already linked) to Strava and then linking Strava to intervals.icu - it's got a great fitness trend/graph and a whole lot of other goodness. I'd then do an FTP test and do one of the Zwift training plans - I know that there are mixed views on the net about these but to build baseline fitness, you won't be sorry for doing it.

I second this

1 word: PiHole

My ANT+ dongle is about 1m from my bike and it works perfectly without any drops. I've had it at about 1.5-2m from my bike previously without issues. Worst case, get yourself a USB extension cable

With all that moving around, don't foget to do the spindowns

Core will also require a cassette - just saying

Thanks for this feedback - really informative. I'd like to know how you guys deal with retailers who purposefully inflate the RRP to make their discounts seem larger. I posted this on the CWC lockdown sale page which seems to have gone very quiet - not sure if it's a coincidence of my post and others calling them out but anyway. Here's the images and caption which I posted, obviously I didn't get a response from them: "Thought I'd share this.... CWC, please let me know where the integrity is? 21% saving on an inflated price...! Bike-Mob, Buycycle and even your parent company have it listed at usually being R9999". The price on their website no longer mentions the inflated RRP and it's being sold for R9499.99. I for one will never buy from them after this.

Thanks for the feedback Shaun, good luck! I'd suggest that you close the last fast downhill (the one that runs parallel to the tar road) until that one gum pole is removed or shift the trail away from the pole. It's right next to the trail and is another accident waiting to happen. If I recall a rider was airlifted a few months back after a serious fall on this section. The last time I rode this section, a while back, the trail itself was in was pretty in bad condition and quite rutted.

Please can someone report back if they've done away with the reverse routes... (please say yes)!

I'd also suggest getting a USB extension cable with an ANT+ dongle. Mine sits about 1M from my bike and I've never had any dropouts.

I've got a Kickr 3 and it's been epic so can certainly vouch for the Wahoo unit. The local support (for questions about cassette sizing, compatibility etc with my MTB) have been amazing. I like the idea of the accessories (Climb etc) that Wahoo are bringing. Either way, I'm sure you'll be happy with either unit you get. As long as it gets used, you'll be better off!

Guys, please will someone PM me when sun block is no longer being discussed so that I can re-follow this topic

Guys, not to sound like a grumpy old sod but please can you create a separate thread on this sunblock issue. My inbox is going mal with all the notifications from this thread and I don't want to turn off notifications.

Anyone else in GP got bronchitis at the moment? My GP says it's been quite prevalent this year

Was there on Sunday after not having been there a while - that section is quite bad and I think that they've added in a gum pole midway which kinda took me by suprise....

I think that’s a good choice- there are also some great deals on trainers in the classified section here.I’ve only used Zwift- been too lazy to try any others

Wahoo Tickr X HR Strap going for R929 on the Takealot App under the App Only Deals section.
