Just wondering when @observeruk.bsky.social are going to remember to put links to the pdf Everyman crosswords up each week 🙏.

Zwift is amazing and has done great things in women's cycling, I've used it tonnes. But I also pay for TP so definitely going to give it a chance. The group ride was great actually, loads of people and the elastic was very effective and not realistic than the crazy swift catapult.

It's similar, and seems stable enough, I've had no problems. It feels more real somehow? Maybe the slowing for corners? It's pretty light on routes but early days I guess.

I'm lucky enough to have inherited an abandoned WattBike so I've not tried that I'm afraid.

Does anyone using TrainingPeaks Virtual know what the three numbers under current power are, in this case - 204/219/444? My best guess is: Average Power/Normalised Power/Max Power but I can't find it anywhere. #TrainingPeaks #TrainingPeaksVirtual #cycling

A great question to ask is "what will happen to the image if I slowly push a piece of card/my hand across the lens until it is half covered?" "The image dims" is not the first thing people think of and is a rather wonderful thing to show.

SD-Worx in Saffron Walden for the Ride London Classique (?I think) - this race now killed off by UCI though 😫

SD Worx were so casual about supporting Vollering after her crash 😬
