If you are putting out 240w Its better that I don't ride with you guys.

*** man, the more the merrier

 

Honestly I would love to kick ROUXTJIE. Butt, but going full for a hour is the best, I wouldn't do it if I was alone, at the end off the day for me THEY ALL JUST RABBITS I AM CHASING knowing I won't catch them doesn't make it any less fun

Couldn't say it better. I have great respect for everyone that does this at 19:00 in the middle of the week, in the middle of the winter.

Join in. I get my ass whipped by this bunch big time. One day when I grow up I will get revenge. Like I say, enter the race, have some fun and get fit at the same time.

i am sure we, CycleOps SA, will run a random give away next month. this will be geared more to the "back" markers

so join in on these rides and have fun, start understanding the system and how it all works.

 

not to mention you will be getting fitter as we all are.

Jislaaik much lekkerder to sit on the couch and looking at you guys chasing each other! Recon we're gonne sell tickets to the show one of these days! Rouxtjie you almost got your ass whipped hey! :)

 

Hope to join tomorrows race!

Too close for comfort....a family ride in your household must be an all out sufferfest. Very strong aunty....big up from me :thumbup:

I think Rouxtjie took the whole virtual thing too far and imagined he was in the Ladies and Bikes thread.

Bleeeeeeding....did the normal started to fast thing....was on your wheel until about 4km to go and then I properly imploded....struggled to even hit 230W. You pay in blood if you go too fast

 

I have you to thank....you teaser you. halfwheeling me like pro and then pooof gone

Ok just some feedback before I re-calc the points standings....

 

Is it normal to use in excess of 400mb of data for a race without video? I measured my data usage last night. Before I started the race I stood on 780mb left on my contract...clicked on start race and countdown timer started...30 odd minutes before the race. Now here is the part I am confused about. It continued to eat data even though we havent started the race. I took a reading again about 1 minute before the start time and expected to see in the region of 780mb again. However I was sitting on 620mb....How did it eat 150mb worth of data? Is it better to rather start the race late then?

 

By the end of the race I was sitting on 360mb left...that would mean a total consumption of 420mb for the race. Is this normal? I was expecting more along the line of 100mb per race.

You make it sound like I am a fluffer from back in the old days. On my screen you were 130-200m behind from about halfway. Lagtime still an issue.

On PC we had to download the video. Dunno if that makes a difference.

Same with me....then with about 4-5km to go, you went 30m in front of me and it steadily built up to about 200-300m in front of me by the end

On my side I had you and Annarij having a tussle. Dave passed me halfway and ended 250m ahead. At one stage your data stopped coming and it appeared you had dropped back to pace Dips back. You were behind him at that stage and 3k back from me. I new that was a ruse and kept on going and voila you came back through the convoy. The great thing is that one has to keep the pedal down no matter what you see.

in all seriouness, you were all at least 1km behind me the whole way,very grumpy i "lost yellow"a hour later,,,,my wife started believing i am the machine i TOLD HER i was :blush: i was lance for about a hour
