Sure is Nick, you don't see it unless you've been invited, who are you ?
So funnily my turbo started slipping on sunday pm...hopped off to tighten it, and i had a puncture!!
think the tube in there was pretty old, and the turbo specific tyre must have transmitted the heat or something, as it was degraded inside!
Glad that didn't happen on a meetup ride....!
DrP
Yeah if you puncture we may actually catch you up 😉
Nick Gilling
sure nick, will send now.
Cheers 🙂
See you all on there later tonight.
I'll run Discord again if anyone wants to try it. Remember, you need the voice channel (STW Voice) and set the app to "push to talk" or words to that effect.😁 Or everyone will hear your grunting and,erm...other noises.Lol
I'm new to Discord too but it should work as long as you go to the voice channel.
Discord channel:
I've dropped out from tonights as having ANT+ dropouts on the last 3 rides. Only ever had the briefest issues previously so want to see if they are now sorted or if I need to reinstall.
stay in Tom, worst case scenario we lose you part way through... best case, you stay in. 🙂
We're only at 30 out of 50 entered so it's not like we need the spaces.
So our broadband provider is very generously delivering nearly half a meg of bandwidth 😉 Hopefully it’ll get fixed by later. It was fine last night, did a group ride and realised one small fan and April are not compatible. Tonight all doors and windows open!
Enjoy tonight all, wish I could be there but I have the luxury of late working!
I'm going to make everyone who finished behind me in the 'tempo' donate a fiver to the NHS and my lad

I may not make it anyway but I'm back in.
Good one Tom 🙂 nice
I’ve not been able to make the last few rides so have opted out of them but am hoping to be free this evening. I seem to have two notifications from a couple of days ago but no actual invite. If there’s any spare places Weeksy could you send one over please. Many thanks.

Weird - I've had no issues with Zwift dropouts (ANT+) until recently. Sometimes they are momentary - perhaps a second. Sometimes they can be up to 10 seconds, probably no more.
I have just ordered & had delivered a 2m USB extension. I am going to 'hard wire' it into my set-up so the ANT+ dongle sits right near the turbo trainer. See if that makes a difference.
The cable was only a few quid from Amazon.
I have to unplug the cable with the dongle on and unpair everything then try again.
The computer struggles in this process as well for some reason.
Hoping a switch off and on may have fixed it.
Not sure who you are Drew, but i've added 4 people with close enough names, so hopefully you're one 🙂
If not, please shout.
Andrew Atkinson. Cheers Weeksy, I’m in.
weeksy can you add "S.weary Dave" and I'll try and make it later
Not seeing you in my friends list mate, have you added me ?
Think so, Steve Weeks STW © ?
Got ya.
Are there any spare invites going? I'm Claire.
Aye, sure.
If there's still a spot for this evening Weeksy and no one minds I'd be glad of the invite.
Not sure how well or long I'll last mind as I'm officially quarantined as I'm full of [s] deadly killer death virus of death [/s] cold and/or hay-fever so guess it will make or break me.
Aye, you're in
Road bikes and bumblebee kit again??
DrP
Grand ta

DrP could ride an MTB.

Can stick as a group for the start, no worries!
DrP
I'm in. Please don't be offended if I'm not very chatty. My bluetooth keyboard isn't working. I might also have to drop out towards the end to light the BBQ.
I'll put the Discord server on at 6pm if people want to dabble with it before the ride.
Discord running.
Discord invite.

Had to do an early ride tonight so will miss this one. Have a good ride everyone.
@stumpy01 try turning the game resolution down, that cured my drop outs

As always - cheers for organising Weeksy.
