AlanT reacted to Gerard Deeley in Corona virus update
This we all understand and appreciate the clarity about this. My thoughts were to do some sort of segment challenge using the TT routes, which would easily fall within guidelines. My suspicion is that any subsequent posting/boasting/moaning about times on the club forum would divide opinion about club endorsement and to ensure club compliance with current guidelines it would be simpler to not have us posting. It would appear, for the sake of a couple more weeks, that waiting for day we resume some sort of club activity is the sensible way forward.
May I propose that we should consider reversing the hill climb route if we get to use it this year, hillclimbing just takes much more effort these days for some reason...

The guidance is that ALL sanctioned club activities remain suspended. I interpret that as we can't organise any real events on the roads through the club. Of course, there is no reason why a group of individuals who have a common interest can't organise something amongst themselves, but as a club, we cannot be seen to support that. Yet.

The updated guidance fromSC is that club events are still suspended. So, no published programme of events. Yet.
Got to say, I'm a wee bit disappointed by that as I thought we could maintain social distancing on a time trial, but, heh ho.

AlanT got a reaction from Scott in Corona virus update
Aaaaand the good news is that the committee is considering a reduced programme of confined events starting from mid July, subject to guidance from SC/BC. The current view from that level is that club events won't be sanctioned until August. So, we can't say for certain right now when, or even if, a programme will take place, but the general principle will be that we will attempt to run the league of 10, the chocolate series, and the hilly TT series in a reduced format. Turn up, race go home. No holders. Results will be published when the timekeeper uploads them. Further updates to follow when more info becomes available.

AlanT reacted to Alan McLean in Michael's Zwift APR 7pm 21/04
Much lol. My pm did not register at start so I began about 1 minute after first group. Was overtaken after 10 mins by fast guys. Then 20 minutes of full gas with Brookes(thanks) before I felt rain on my back and slid off rollers. The tubeless tyre punctured and sprayed me and roller with sealant creating real life skid hazard. That was a sign to give up. Very silly.

AlanT reacted to thejanullrichdietplan in Monday 20th April 5.30pm Zwift ride - hour earlier than normal
Meetup time is a bit earlier than normal at 5.30pm
50 minute group ride, sticky draft on so no-one will be dropped for this.
Remember to follow Johnstone Wheelers on the companion app if you want an invite
Before the event is due to start make sure you have opened up the game and can see your avatar and bike - you can ride about on any course or just sit waiting. When it is 5 minutes to the start of the meetup a dialogue box will appear on the bottom left of the screen - select that and it will take you to the start of the group ride.
Course is Richmond. The meetup function now allows any map to be used so hopefully this will mean quieter roads.

AlanT reacted to Alan McLean in Friday 17 April 6.30 Zwift ride - Sticky draft ON
Aaagh. I was waiting at the start when my pm battery decided to pack in. I think I am missing one ride in three due to Bluetooth/pm/phone problems.
Still having beer though.....

Toiled really badly after getting gapped at the start, not sure why, maybe just a lack of watts. Anyway, threshold plus effort wasn't closing the gap, so just ground it out. Wrecked by the end.
Bring back the sticky draft.

Apparently there's another zwift update. Give yourselves an extra 15 minutes or so for the update to happen.
Or do the upgrade today. 😀
