Sounds great!

Am I too late to join?
C group pace is where I'm at I think.
Only problem is my work schedule means attendance can be a bit sporadic!
Weekend morning rides would be good.
Thanks
JB
You should be ok to join in with today's ride.
Go to the stw zwift club page and you should be able to find the event.
Is there a ride this Saturday (8th)? If so, how do I find it in Zwift?
Thanks
JB
Can't see anything in the club page but I'd be up for something late morning ish
Where do I find the club page? Once I know that I can keep an eye out for events.
I've tried clicking a few of the old event links on previous pages...
Companion app - might not be working for android, I know there were issues.
Anyone fancy a Sunday hills ride tomorrow? Just debating heading outside or staying in (or possibly both as it'll be solo outside)
I can put a Sunday hills ride in. Which course and what time?
8.30 or 9ish and something with lumps.i would say I've not done the big Innsbruck hill for ages but to be honest I've not done anything for ages
I maybe, but it’s a big maybe, up for the Innsbruck hill ride. Though it all depends on how many beers I have watching the mighty Tigers later on tonight!
So don’t put me down as a defo.

Here you go. Link to the event. Or you can join through the clubs section of the companion app.
Brian - I can make you ride leader if you would like?
You mean lend me the big gold arrow?
Why not eh?
All done! You have the conn.
I really enjoyed that this morning, that's Jimbob & DangerousBrain for the company
Indeed, thanks for coming. Was good to "see" some new faces and have the company.
@robbo1234biking I only meant once up the hill, I'm way too out of practice for that!
Well you didn’t have to do both ascents!
I suppose it meant we got to come down it twice.
Enjoyed that one this morning. Cheers gents
I would like to join a ride or two when I’m available, what’s the best way to keep a check on when they are on?Tia
I have put a Sunday Hills ride in for Sunday morning at 8am. Feel free to join via the link below or through the clubs tab on the companion app. Going to make 8am on Sundays a regular slot to get a bit more interest going! Anyone wants to lead let me know.

All being well I'll be out in the real world on Sunday.
Yeah see you Sunday.
I can lead Rob. Happy to do steady 2 - 2.5 wkg and people can join and leave as it suits. Bring money for cake 😉
Bring money for cake 😉
I thought sausages were standard fare for Sunday hills?
You never had sausage cake?
Well much as sausage cake sounds pretty revolting, I suppose "come for the sausage, stay for the cake" beats "come for sausage, stay for the craic"

To be fair, I thought the same about carrot cake before I tried it!
I'm gonna try & make Sunday's ride, but not sure what the weekend plans are at the moment.
Sunday is unlikely as i'm at Surry Hills.... but i'll be getting 'indoors' plenty in the coming weeks.
Anyone fancy an FTP test this saturday AM???
I can set up a 75min ride, with elastic band… and as long as we all chose the ‘normal’ FTP test, we can do it together???

Surrey Hills on Sat for me i'm afraid.
Well all, I made the hard decision this morning to keep off Zwift and the bike for the next 2 to 3 months until I get the heart back in working order. Even though I've not been on any recent STW races or meet ups I've been trying to get some form of cycling still in my life but recent easy turbo spins are causing me quite a bit of fatigue, plus I probably need to give the heart some rest rather than pushing it when it's not ready.
A new change of meds and another procedure at the end of February will hopefully get me back in a better place (the last one didn't work!).
So Zwift subscription on hold for now. Planning for an April return when I will definitely be joining you back on the Sunday hills, although probably slower!!. Have fun all and keep up the banter!
TBH mate it'll be tough... but not as tough as dropping dead... Good luck to you and just because you're not in the gang, doesn't mean you're not in the gang 🙂

Hmm, I've been meaning to do one of these and keep putting it off, could be the push I need to actually complete it. What time you thinking?

Lol, cheers! Yeah not being able to bike for a few months, I pity the wife!
Edit - I just realized how that sounds, I mean me being grumpy, hahaha!
Hope they get you on the mend Craig
@oopnorth, we miss you. But it's good you are looking after yourself. I hope Feb goes well and you stay on target for April. We'll still be here.
Hope things go well @oopnorth, I don’t know what I would do, not being able to jump on the bike, even for a little spin.
Take things easy and see you back in the virtual world soon!
Thanks lads, it's going to be tough to stay off the bike but it has to be done. If all goes well it won't be long.
I'll be watching how you all get on in the races in the meantime.
Does anyone know if it's possible to take individual workouts from the Zwift training plans and complete them?
I was looking to follow the Build Me Up plan very loosely but it appears that the only way you can do the specified workouts is to follow the full 12 week plan.
Am I missing something?
Had a bit of slack time at work so did a little search. This may help.

Hope they work for you.
Just done my next TDZ stage. Bloody TV switched off and the Apple TV disconnected half way through. It all came back on after a couple of minutes and I'd lost 100 places.
The companion app never sync'd with the game throughout though. It sometimes use slow to do so, but it didn't at all this time. What dictates whether it sync's or not? I'd signed on to the event through the app about half an hour before.
I'm doing the TDZ ride at 1800 today, if anyone is interested?

So I’m quite new to this Zwifting lark- been doing 1-2 sessions a week this winter and looking to increase fitness before spring. Regular rides/ races might just make me get on the turbo on nights I don’t fancy it.
How does the club thing work (I can’t see it on the companion app- is that because I haven’t had the special handshake?), and is there still any space- I saw there was a 100 member limit on page 1, then skipped to the end!
There is still space and every user on Zwift should now have access...but Zwift havent really rolled it out very well so its use is limited at the moment. With no notification it relies on people cehcking when an event is up etc. The good news is they are working on a lot of features as per the below. Once this is sorted then it should be a good asset but until that stage it isnt really useable. Other club members cant even create events at the moment. Hopefully this will all get sorted soon though and we can start to make better use of it (especially as I know @DrP wants to start workout club!).
