      You're welcome 😂, it was really interesting and in a way scary to see how accurate it was 😳.

    Thank yo.u for your sacrifice, so we didn't have to do it ourselves! :-) I am kind puzzled by this feature though. One time I did reach 1% Stamina during a ride and managed to paddle for another 5-6 kms! The Stamina remained at 1% the entire time... I guess I was able to recover enough energy each minute go go on for another minute, an so on and so on... :-)

      Thanks Vic; as far as I'm aware, the stamina feature shows how long you can give a full effort. I think more than saying you can't carry on, it's saying you can't give your all anymore. I gave up because I felt knackered, but I am sure I could have just kept on pushing on if I needed to. 👍

    Nice setup for zwift. Bye rain, falls, cold, realworld :)

      Thanks, Roberto, it's a setup that gets a lot of use, I am guessing that there is more of a need for it here in the UK than over in Brazil 😂. Well from a weather perspective, it sticks in my mind that you mentioned getting hit by a car 🙈 (no cars to get hit by on Zwift). I hope you are well my friend.

      @@robertomguimaraes totally get that 👍, it's a risk. But I am.a better person and better father when a ride so for me it's a trade off and I choose riding. To be fair I do a lot of riding indoors and it has a similar benefit. But I am just about to go out and do 80km with some friends.

    Fenix 6 doesn’t (yet) have this feature, right?

      I'm pretty sure it doesn't, I think they are keeping it for the newer devices as a reason to upgrade.

    For your age you are in good shape (you look good). Looking at it I can tell you have alot of endurance.

      Thanks I think 🤔 😂 Kenneth, and definitely thank you for taking the time to comment 😊. I am a bit on the heavy side for a cyclist but I have been lighter and smaller and I didn't like it.
      I was thinking 🤔 for my age 😳🙈 . I'm only 37 (or I will be on Tuesday) but then in was just talking to my kids realising that I am getting older 😉.

      @@kennethjoseph9309 to be honest Kenneth at 27 I was in worse shape than I am now. I was in a proper workaholic no time for health mode which I didn't change until 2019. I'm now fitter than I have ever been. I have loads of energy and I can challenge myself physically to a level I'm happy with 😊.
      Keep up the good work now my friend 😊👍. But also know if it ever slips you can get it back 😊.
