My personal problem is managing to eat and digest in enough time so not be ill, the number of races I've dropped out from 🙁
P.
Sorry I didn't make it to the start line
Bump!

2x Richmond UCI, Thursday, 7.40pm, all welcome...
I'm a maybe. Sore throat, snot and a poorly son suggest something is brewing. Will make the call Thursday lunchtime.
I'm in, if you don't mind pulling me around for about, hmm let say 45 mins 🙂
P.
signed up 🙂
We're on 4 maybe 5. I was pessimistic, but it's getting better. More people would be better.
Anyway Team for now is @phil56, @robbo1234biking, @paul-s, @djflexure and maybe @slowpuncheur

I’m a 60/40 on for tomorrow…will know in the a.m. cheers.
Sorry chaps. It ain't happening for me tonight. Totally washed out with this cold. Go well.
I’m in btw
Delay is 8.5 minutes.
In the pen by 19:43 off at 19:51:30
There are 5 confirmed. To join them click link above.
I forgot its my wedding anniversary today - good news is that she's really understanding, Champagne is on ice for when we finish TTT.
HI all - entry is in for next week. 2 laps of the flatland loop in makuri. 27km. not totally flat. no significant climbs either.
Spreadsheet is clear. It's here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1E_0I0hulOaE2y34RpjckVCoT2Jks16vypeZ98L_LUw8/edit?usp=sharing
Also I won't be around much this week. So, earlier than usual (but use the spreadsheet and the thread so everyone knows who is involved etc):
Racepass: Pen B, yes pen B here: https://www.wtrl.racing/zwift/zwiftsignon.php?id=cUs0bWlSZDc0bEw5TTZQdlFGaVA5dz09
Start delay will be published Weds evening. It will be posted here: https://www.wtrl.racing/ttt/TTT-Event/
Thanks - signed up (see Phil is in early too)
Its looking thin on the ground to this point. My cycling club are putting a couple of teams out this week. If it looks like we dont have an STW team tonight I'm going to swap over to ensure I get a ride.
I've signed up to boost the numbers. This time I'll not do a ride on Wednesday so hopefully won't be dropped.
P.
looks like only me & phil on the app - unless others aren't using "stw" names and/or I'm not following them
Jeez - what if it is just me & phil ? 😮
Currently two yes and two maybes…
If you guys decide to ride (I can’t make this week) the start delay is +12 mins so in the pen for 19:41 and on the road at 19:53. Good luck!
Any updates on the 2 maybes?
P.
Sorry, can’t play out later. Have fun!
It looks like we don't have a team for tonight - not surprising considering it's half term
Next week then...
If it makes any difference, I would be a yes, as I'm actually home on time
Ok there's a c cat ride with about the same start time I'll do that.
P
(don't need to race though, obvz)
I have cleared the spreadsheet for Thursday (I think Savoyad is away so hopefully he does the team registration for us!)
25km of RGV this week so a fairly short one!
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1E_0I0hulOaE2y34RpjckVCoT2Jks16vypeZ98L_LUw8/edit#gid=0
Thanks robbo. I've put the entry in.
5 in so far so we have a team. Any more takers?
https://zwiftinsider.com/route/rgv/
The route is pretty flat - lets not kill everyone on the Aquaduct KOM to save 10 seconds. Its only a 40 second or so segment anyway so would suggest we stick to 3.0 w/kg or thereabouts. It might all go wrong when we get to the rollers but lets get to them as a team first!
I can't join in this week (I've not joined in for many weeks!) I might join in in the future though.
At the moment it's @paino @phil56 @slowpuncheur @robbo1234biking @haloric
Room for more.
Here's the racepass, enter pen D here: https://www.wtrl.racing/RacePass/?id=NWg5MGh5TWVnSkRVK1NYWEZrVFR3dz09
I'll post the time delay later.
In, both on the Spreadsheet and on wtrl.
🙂
P.
I'm in (as much as I ever am, anyway - if the team gets full and somebody more dependable wants to ride, I'll happily drop out)
Thanks @Savoyad (& Robbo - I've taken a screenshot of the 3w/kg bit !)
I've signed up too - looks like we have a full roster of 8 riders. Should be good.
Team full!
The line up is @paino @haloric @paul-s @slowpuncheur @phil56 @scaredypants @djflexure @robbo1234biking
Cool! Just checking, the above link is to the race pass, can’t see the link to sign into the D Pen? Zwift companion already sees me as signed up though?
Same here paino - I just assumed it was the new way (companion app shows me as entered too)
Oh yes, brave new world. No flyers anymore, and no need to enter via the pens. WTRL handle it all.
Just follow the racepass, and you are done.
Everyone is correctly signed up. @paino @haloric @paul-s @slowpuncheur @phil56 @scaredypants @djflexure @robbo1234biking
Start delay is 4 minutes. So in the pen by 19:43 and off at 19:47
Enjoy!
New pack dynamics are enabled for the TTT tonight so there may be a slight difference. Will just have to see how it goes/what it is like?
The route is pretty flat – lets not kill everyone on the Aquaduct KOM to save 10 seconds.
This means if you don't see me in front of you or right on your wheel, take a breather, I'll be there shortly !.
Fortunately that rise is not too long, so I should be nearby if we don't go crazy.
Had a family bereavement and been rushing around all day. Probably won't make it, even though cycling usually helps me as a coping mechanism.
Good luck if I'm not there
P
So sorry to hear that @paul-s - I hope you are doing OK. Look after yourself and the family. This coping mechanism will still be here when you're ready for it again.
@Paul-S I completely echo the above. Take care of yourself and your loved ones first and foremost. See you soon.
Oh wow, sorry to hear that Paul
Condolences and best wishes from me, whatever you decide to do
Sorry to hear that paul-s - my condolences to you and your loved ones.
Thanks everyone for dragging me round, shepherding me back on and general shouting encouragement. For me it's a fine line between being hanging on close to the limit and then suddenly it being too much.
Cramp was coming for the much of the 2nd half, and finally struck about 100m from the finish, had to pedal one legged to reach the line.
Managed a 2w ftp increase which hasn't happened for a while, so at least I was over my limit.
Thanks again.
