I will prob keep the name as is... not worried about ride ons too much... just enjoying the plodding worth you guys!
DrP
Hope to join late afternoon, if he's not finished
I could see you and Paino and then Nick join as I left, pace was strong impressively so for what layed head. The playlist was excellent enjoyed that too.
Great effort so far.
How many gloves you won today?? 🤣🤣
Ohhh I got a helmet on the second run
5 th done..
60.50 for that one....
Just having a pork pie and sorting a sore ankle!
DrP
Keep fuelling and drinking!
Sorry if that was a bit quicker than planned DrP, I got through turn 1 and spotted the eta a few seconds ahead of you and figured I was damned if I was going over the hour by that little. I'm hoping you didn't start to follow me before you twigged.
Still looking very relaxed on the YouTube feed!
He's making it look ridiculously easy, decent power for a low heart rate and getting up in the same time as the first!
Keep it up, it's mental but amazing!
Nearly at the top of number 6...
Need another wee....
Had TimP pop by and chat through the window!
DrP
61.15 that one...

Here I am with DrP and Brian - they couldnt see me at all. Zwift is strange. Decided to disconnect my link to Strava as well for some reason but all sorted now. Cant believe the pace you are still able to hit!
Still going strong DrP
Interesting you had that as well @robbo1234biking, did you join by choosing the ride with option?
No I rode to the bottom of the Alpe and then waited for DrP to turn up. Didnt have to wait long - he comes past every hour or so.
yanboss doing a good job riding with him now. I think he is on his second ascent now. Only one more chance to ride a full ascent with him!
Zwift has it’s quirks, just watched a bit of the live video stills looks very composed.
I have to say he looked very relaxed and underdressed as stood outside in the snow and sub zero temperatures!
Awesome set up too!
People are whinging at our banter!
D4P
I could have asked about the need for dynamo and rack for an Everest
And now everyone knows I should have joined the Chub Club
@Drp I wondered if that might happen when we were on chat earlier, I think our Sunday Hills banter is different to the generic public Zwift banter 😂 which is no bad thing.
Half the fun of Zwift is eavesdropping in to all the random conversations going on!
Only 1000m to go now!
Edit: Ignore me! 1400m to go
our Sunday Hills banter is different to the generic public Zwift banter 😂 which is no bad thing.
Yeah, the chat is often a bit "bland" in zwift isn't it?!
I can't believe someone complained about it though.
Mrs brain is hoping on for a little bit then I should be back for the last climb all being well.
@dangeourbrain yes the “standard” ride chat is bland that’s a good word for it, I think the chat is what helps the rides go quicker.
@DrP still looking strong not too far now.
Someone complained???? What did you say? 🤣🤣🤣
This is why we can never open our Sunday hills to the general public haha
Keep going @DrP you have broken it's back now...not far to go!
I've been rick-rolled....!
DrP
I’ve been rick-rolled….!
Ha!
Just gone past 8000m....
Paul and Lee providing support
Wheels!!!
Just in time for Tuesday
About bloody time. Shiny new stuff.
heck yah! wheels!!!
Righto...final descent.... then only 500 odd M to climb (in reality I'll prob aim for about 8950m to be sure!)...
all welcome!!!
I'm buzzing!!!
DrP
Just go all the way to the top again
Well done - enjoy (if thats the right word) the last bit!
He ticks over the 200km mark while off the bike and looking at his phone 🤣
Last ascent to go, good luck.
Well done Dr P and well done to all the support riders.
Sorry about the Rick Rolling. Just thought you'd appreciate us never giving you up.
Top effort @DrP
I've already opened the celebratory beers.
Bloody great effort mate...final stretch...enjoy the moment!
Well now I know what Rick-rolling is. Late to the party there. Ian is flying. Did one ascent with him but that descent then bang into another climb is tough. My legs didn't fancy another go. He's got stronger company now for the home straight.
C'mon Ian get this done...you're distracting me from painting the spare room! 🤣🤣
Well done you will look fabulous on Tuesday with your new wheels and oversized glasses 🤓
....and numerous gloves 🤣🤣
Multiple gloves could come in handy in this weather.
