    I’m not in this week but there are always others! I’m sure Robbo will send you an invite.

    Don’t overdo it, we need you right for Tuesday!

    Righty – invites sent for Sunday not very hilly, London pretzel at 8.30am.

    I can’t see far enough back for my old invite list so I’ve just spammed all of you.

    It’s a good Route that one, 32km of flat lead in before you hit the Fox and box hills, pity I can’t make it.

    Thanks for the invite but I’m having connection issues so going to try my lap top tomorrow to make sure all good for Tuesday.

    anybody had problems with dropping out since upgrading to iOS 14 on an I pad  3 times it’s dropped out after about an hour including last Tuesday , thought it might have been the steroz device but didn’t use it this morning to check and it still dropped out using Bluetooth.

    I’m going to try and make it, it’s been a while…

    Well that is a lonely Surrey Hills done and dusted. Ticked of 2 off the ZA workouts though to get 3 in total and unlock the nice blue cap! Did SS/Threshold blocks on the 5 climbs and then gentle spinning to recover on the downhills/flats.

    That just leaves Pretzel, Mega Pretzel, Uber Pretzel and Four Horseman. Struggling to get much enthusiasm to finish those routes of to be honest! Pretzel wont be too bad I guess. Maybe attempt that for next Sunday’s hills? Should be a little bit over 2 hours.

    I should be there in the morning, bringing up the rear. Absolutely no need to wait for me if I can’t keep up.

    @slowpuncheur sorry just spotted that – if you’re following me you should have had one – you may even have been on the ride this morning if I’m right about your zwift name!

    Cheers for organising, I’d have never done that solo, I’d have got bored and climbed off lol

    Hope it was a good one this morning guys…its a nice route.


    @robbo1234biking
    you have exactly the same ones as me to do, like you they probably ain’t gonna get done anytime soon, apart from the Pretzel which is definitely achievable.

    I also have a couple of New York ones to do too if I can ever generate the passion….I really don’t like new York and they all involve that glass hill…

    I’m up for Pretzel next week.

    Also jumping on the ZA group ride at 2pm if anyone is interested

    Thanks all good ride out this morning found it tougher than it should have been, think I need a couple proper rest days. Which Pretzel next week were you thinking oopnorth?

    This is the one forge. I can’t do next Sunday though (visiting the in-laws) so would have to be Saturday hills for me if anyone is free on Saturday instead.

    @dangeourbrain. Didn’t get on this morning. I’m P Tunstall on Zwift. If you can follow me, I’ll do the same. I’m up for the Pretzel next week 🙂

    I have sent out an 8 am invite and invited people I can remember doing the weekend rides but I have so many stw people now after the race series I have prob missed someone off. So if you would like an invite let me know.

    Late join should be available so you can join in later if you want as well!

    Big thanks to Weeksy and Scaredy for pacing me on the crit city race.

    Top team delivered me to a WIN!!!

    Perfect pacing, just inside the cut off, Result.

    Nice Crust! Well done

    I should have joined that crit just to try one out but ended up on the Academy group ride…which got very tasty!

    Thanks for the route link, Saturday is fine with me as is 8am, will we be having a break in the middle or going for it non-stop? Hopefully I will get a bit more pacey and feel a bit fitter next week.

    Bring a picnic Forge, we can stop on top of the radio tower 😉

    robbo1234biking

    I wasn’t planning on a stop. Should be enough time descending for a bit of a rest. I think the worse bit will be the flat middle section with the two short climbs!

    Ok cool I shall plan accordingly, I’ll make sure I have a picnic for the top of the tower 😂😂

    Now the racing is over I’ve set up a social ride for Tuesday evening to give Robbo a couple of weeks off. Fan flats for an hour, riding as a blob with sprints each lap.

    I’ve invited all my STW flagged followers but if anyone else wants in then just shout up.

    Just a reminder that some of us are doing the Watopia Pretzel badge tomorrow morning at 8am. Sunday hills is Saturday hills this week.

    If anyone wants to join, let us know and we will get an invite out.

    See you in the morning for some hills!

    I’ll be joining you on the line but other commitments mean I’m unlikely to finish the course, I’ll take a view at about 30k or the bottom of the epic, which ever comes first, and might be rude and just put my head down and push on if I think I’ll be done by a time likely to lead only a slightly annoyed Mrs brain, or I’ll ditch at some point more conducive to a “happy” wife.

    Mrs Weeksy doesn’t care 🙂 Especially in covid times as it’s not like we’re going out for lunch or anything.

    However, the plan for tomorrow is some Ridgeway with my boy.
