Jorrie Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 I'm downloading strait to the ipad in VT app, Not the end of the world if there's no video, like Rouxtjie said the nuts and bolts isn't in the video but I quite like riding video routes, nice to see what it actually look like where you're ride. Just another nice to have to keep this huge brain of mine occupied Just think they need to work on it, along the line you're gonna get people that buy it to ride videos and at this stage even with uncapped wifi you can't. If you pay that amount of money for a IDT they need to sort it out.
Jorrie Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 Sorry Dave, only see your post now! Sure they'll sort it out, its only a software issue! Still loving my powerbeam!
Showtime Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 I am a hardcore triathlete. The term "drafting" for me is something I refer to when I drink beer in a pub. I suddenly had a flashback Ek wil graag 5 poste hier adverteer:- Dit is vir SONDAG se race. Die 5 gelukkige ouens sal deel uitmaak van my span. Die bevooregte ouens wat die vakature vul sal na verwys word as "domestiques" en hoewel seker engelse mense ook daarna verwys as "sacrificial lambs" moet julle nie daaraan steur nie..... 4 van die 5 poste is ouens wat moet voor ry en die bondel se gemiddelde spoed hoog hou. Onder geen omstandighede mag julle toelaat dat ek wind kry nie dit is baie NB. Indien dit sou gebeur dat ek `n pap wiel kry sal ek verwag dat een van julle vir my julle wiel sal gee terwyl die ander 3 my dan sal terug trek in die bondel in. Voel ook vry om my teen opdraendes op te stoot. Die 5de persoon is die "waterboy" en hy moet sorg dat almal se waterbottels vol bly. My taak is om seker te maak julle almal doen julle werk. Saam kan ons soveel meer bereik. Hierdie is `n wonderlike geleentheid vir 5 mense om bietjie "terug te sit in die sport in". Onthou, fietsry is die wenner aan die einde van die dag... Aansoeke sluit more aand 8PM. Laat die CV's begin inrol.... PS:- Indien daar meer as 5 aansoeke is sal ek oorweeg om die span te vergroot.
V12man Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 Well - I am now Rouxtjies friend, just got to go get a ant+ dongle and then I am all set for trying this using my ordinary trainer and powermeter wheel - just got to get over a bit of flu first - spend most of last night out in the cold, so that probably isn't going to help recovery. So - I am hoping to join sometime next week.
ricochet_rabbit Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 @DangerDave, Have cycleops considered the possibility of a local server, even administered from Canada, that replicates with the main server? This would probably solve a number of connectivity related issues and allow your customers to make use of all that local bandwidth most people have but rarely make full use of.

Shhhhhh part of our top secret plan....
BicyclePower Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 Right guys in in for next weeks challenge. we also planning something our self's, more details on this tomorrow.
TALUS Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 @PowerTap: I have VT on my PC with the dongle/thingie for PC. This works fine but then I use the Joule 3 to change gears etc. I also have an Ipad with the ant+ dongle/thingie. This works fine for free training and pre-set programs and then I adjust resistance with the + and - on the Ipad.My question: Can I not use the Ipad in place of the Joule to change gears etc. wile racing on the PC? The Ipad is much nicer to use. If not - I can not find the Race etc on the Ipad app. Please help.

Jaco-fiets Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 Internet sorted! I will be joining tuesday. How do I go about joining? Should I download the route now?
DIPSLICK Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 Thanks to complete cyclist for sorting me out with my unit, thanks for POWER TAP offering to go the extra mile, thanks for ROUXTJIE for the "back up" Got my first ride in today Can't believe how smooth the power delivery isCan't believe how simple it is to get up and running(maybe 40min)I wish ROUXTJIE done a product review before I went the "other route first"
Jaco-fiets Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 With all the reviews on Tacx I cannot believe people still go that route....
TALUS Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 Internet sorted! I will be joining tuesday. How do I go about joining? Should I download the route now?DIPS the route by Rouxtjie will download very quickly. It is nicer to download big rides beforehand. Everybody wants to do Alp D'Huez so do that for a start? Also get some music into the musicplayer so that you can use lekka loud stuff in earphones during the ride. Dave and the clan will also put several rides on your harddrive if you ask nicely.... Roll on Tuesday night Hub Cup!!!
