Hairy Posted March 27, 2020 Posted March 27, 2020 Got fleeced the other day for probably the last kickr in Joburg. Set up in the corner of the lounge so I can connect laptop to the TV screen, plus my wife has taken over the spare room as an office whilst I bugger around out here. Did a 10km zwift ride to test it out and got absolutely smoked! I hope you were laying flat in those drops to get as aero as possible!

Jewbacca Posted March 27, 2020 Posted March 27, 2020 Weight dopers bru.I mistakenly set my weight 2kg too heavy... I mean, it's training so I never changed it.  Train heavy, race light!!!
Duane_Bosch Posted March 27, 2020 Posted March 27, 2020 (edited) I mistakenly set my weight 2kg too heavy... I mean, it's training so I never changed it.  Train heavy, race light!!!I tried a bit of this weight doping last night on my ride where I went nowhere and sweated a lot. It still sucked. I still sweated buckets. I still kukked off and at the end of it all I was still in my lounge. And if I was able to go ride outside I'd still be the fat unfit slob that I am so I'm not sure why people bother TBH. Edited March 27, 2020 by Duane_Bosch Jewbacca 1
