😂 I knew my minutes on the front were numberd so I wanted to save a pic and pretend the race ended that way.

I have some mini-keypad I've connected to my bars but my neanderthal brain and hands seem to handle only basic stuff. My keyboard is just a couple inches away from the bars so not too hard to manage but I know people who like your concept better for sure.

I tried! So glad I tried at the same time Ewan did and John came up.

I really enjoy the races despite my appearance 😂 The mental engagement plus physical training keeps me coming back. Hope you'll give it a go. Thanks for viewing and your comment.

Thanks Christophe. I need to watch your stream to know what happened up there. So strong ! 💪

@robfmiller2821 bots were strong and help us a lot, Jooris push, Sören of course and Anthony too... At the end the good attack from Greg to cut the line first ahead John Jooris Jan me and the strong bot...

Great racing with you. Quite some negative calorie work day lunch activity for you!

@ I actually get every other Friday off work 🙌🏻

I was glad you encouraged me to add my HR zone indicator back in. It showed me I was doomed going into the last km 😩 Compounding my problem I didn't mean to get ahead so early with so far to go .. Got it all wrong!

@ hahaha lol! That race was incredibly tough

I feel the same way Alexandre! Happy New Year to you and I'm looking forward to our next race together ... in 16 hours :)

Thanks Christophe. It was an interesting one. I've been watching your eCKD stage races. Great team racing and now Pedalers have Simon too! 🦾

@@robfmiller2821 Simon is certainly the best rider i met in TPV except Josh Harris or pro riders that ride there sometimes !!! And what i really like is to be relax all together ;-))

😂 I've seen that a few times when the maps transition. No idea but I think it is just a graphical glitch so no worries if it ever happens to us.

Getting my $19 worth 😂 At least when a cloud goes by the lighting doesn't change much anymore. I watched the beginning of your TTT stream (back to finish it later) and I see you have all this stuff figured out better. I have a lot to learn still!

@ lol - I’m not sure that I do! I just have a big window in front of me when I ride. For evening races I’m not sure what I’m going to do….might need an LED light

I am very flattered you watch my recordings. Yours were what inspired me to try. And improve my audio ... a work in progress. You are very talented. It was really great racing with you the entire tour. Thank you for the challenge!

I must be only 75% of that level of commitment at best. We make a lot of physical ability with all the data we measure but the mental toughness of the top racers is what sets them apart 🫡

It’s amazing how quickly your HR drops back to a normal level

Just for you! I never look at it during a race with my tunnel vision but likely should. A couple of those efforts really hurt 😩

You have a sharp eye. My max is only 170 these days. Punchy courses are easier with a bit of recovery than long climbs though that was't always the case 🤷

You have sharp eyes! I removed it only a couple days ago only because I was seeking the minimalist HUD. I didn't often look at or 'use' those zones while racing but am glad to add them back in for streams/recordings. Thank you for that feedback.

Thank you as always Christophe. I saw you did a climbing race later and are signed up for eCKD Stage 1 tomorrow so a busy week already for you!

@@robfmiller2821 it s really easy to ride for 35' or 45' and good to ride together too

I had eyes only on the bot behind me by then 😂 You did great finishing so strong. We need one more recording between us to see the full picture. Congratulations.

Thanks Even! Missed you in this one. See you when you get back home.

Great racing Kris and congratulations on your win! You made the move I thought would work with the topology and wind conditions 💪

Agreed! Thanks so much for the broadcast. This is great

As I watched I was usually of two minds what I thought might work. No easy choices! It was worth a shot there to see if he could split the 3 steamers. The wind was against them there though making it tough sledding. Fascinating viewing.

Yeah Skylar, we were hoping that Brent would make it back but on our radio he was saying that he wouldn’t be able to make it back to us and he would be dropping back. I was hoping to drop off someone but it didn’t work…

@jmbcycling makes sense to me! It is fun to speculate about strategy without all of the information 🤣 Sounds like you made the best decision in the moment 💪🏻

Thanks Skyler. I don't have anywhere near the talent for producing these streams/recordings that you do. Very basic stuff is all I know how to do but I really enjoy the racing too :)

@ well it looks skillful to me, you fooled me!

Thank you you are very kind. As for attacks ... we all need to study the bots. I was attacked today by Jakob bot who attacked from the gutter making it very hard for me to react in time and try to position over his way to catch his draft... he waited for a cross wind and had moved over to the leeward side. Only braking corners saved me 😂

Thanks Christophe. Tired legs from the weekend but it was fun watching the action up ahead.

I found out the maximum pace bot power setting is 999W 😂 So far I have just used it to preview course finish locations from the safety of my sofa. I'm still waiting on Alex to set up his 'Pace of Death' race on the velodrome :)

If only Ludvig was there too to fight for that sprint finish 💪 Doug was the star of the race for sure though with all those brave attacks.

@robfmiller2821 if Ludvig was there yesterday, i m sure he had jumped in Doug's wheel and...you know the end 🤟

Can I take back my earlier offer to join your version of this race? 😂 Ready when you are ... gulp.

If you have any ideas for variations on this idea I'll join you :) Different courses?
