2023 Subscriptions thejanullrichdietplan Posted April 7, 2020 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted April 7, 2020 60 minute group ride, sticky draft on so no-one will be dropped. 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.

2023 Subscriptions thejanullrichdietplan Posted April 8, 2020 Author 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted April 8, 2020 Sorry about the mix up with sticky draft, was playing about with the settings and while doing so i automatically joined the start pen so didnt want to edit anything incase it lost the meetup! Anyway great effort by David and Karen getting back onto the front bunch by the top of the hill in the jungle....Billy tantalising close only 2 seconds back. The bunch flows a bit more naturally without the sticky draft on, however its obviously not so good for keeping group together. So i’ll keep it on most of the time but maybe have a ride each week without it. Or perhaps do back to back shorter meetups - say 45 minute ride with it on then a 10 minute break then a 30 minute ride with it off.

2023 Subscriptions XXX Posted April 8, 2020 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted April 8, 2020 Don’t about yous I hit a higher HR for that ride than I do in a GT or WF TT, it was so sticky I was sitting at 290 watts and going backwards, totally spent and in need of a drink , Gin is hypertonic isn’t it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2024 Subscriptions Darryl Gunson Posted April 8, 2020 2024 Subscriptions Report Share Posted April 8, 2020 Thanks Iain. Without the sticky we all know what happens. Tonight was fun but just like last night - may be even a bit harder, and twice as long. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2023 Subscriptions George Posted April 8, 2020 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted April 8, 2020 Ian, why not have a big hill and give points for the first 5 up it then a big long flat bit with a sprint at the end of it with points for the first 5 there too? 😉 Darryl Gunson and thejanullrichdietplan 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2023 Subscriptions AlanT Posted April 8, 2020 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted April 8, 2020 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.

2023 Subscriptions George Posted April 8, 2020 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted April 8, 2020 I’m still not sure what’s going on. Are people still able to charge away despite there being this sticky draft thing? Andy was miles ahead with Richie. Richie then left but was still “there” then Darryl went ahead with Greg O even though Greg seemed to be showing zero watts. Is it just Zwift playing up?

Roberto Posted April 8, 2020 Report Share Posted April 8, 2020 Think the Sticky Draft was missing tonight (see Iain's post above) If not mistaken I held about 285W for a while early on with messrs Provan & Gumley before running out of gas Be good to leave the SD off 1 or 2 times a week, definitely thejanullrichdietplan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
