Big_G 31 Jan 5:12pm, 31 Jan 2024 3,227 posts	0 Big_G Tried MyWhoosh today, as I cancelled Zwift a couple of weeks ago, as I know it won’t get much use for a couple of months at least. I know there are political issues some have with how it’s funded, but I’m not talking about those here. I think the app is very similar to Zwift, but it’s very noticeably quieter. I did an easy 30mins on it today whilst messing around with the app, and I think 3 or 4 overtook me, I didn’t see anyone coming the other way and I didn’t overtake anyone. But the different routes are good, and I do like ticking those off - I did one in Belgium today. They do have races but no TTT that I can see, they’ve got workouts etc. I liked the side on cameras whilst going around corners. And it’s currently free, so it will me suit me for the occasions I want to do an easy ride. But it is very, very quiet. Interesting they’ve nicked the UCI e sports world champs off of Zwift as well, as presumably they threw more cash at UCI.
Gobi 17 Feb 8:51pm, 17 Feb 2024 81,031 posts	0 Gobi So a little update from me . Lost about 6 weeks to a chest infection but am now using zwift to rebuild fitness. I'm a B cat these days, raced last week and got destroyed on the climbs even though I could ride back to the bunch and then totally ruined at the end. Raced again this week and rode away on the climbs with another chap, held of the bunch by 20 seconds without any help only to get jumped by my hanger on. Got 2nd and saw some better power numbers. Give it another month and I'd expect to be an A cat again looking at the numbers. What's really struct me is how much I enjoy the climb portals right now and how quickly the levels are passing, will move to level 75 tomorrow.
MudMeanderer 17 Feb 9:30pm, 17 Feb 2024 2,519 posts	0 MudMeanderer Good riding. I'm not feeling the inclination to race in Zwift (we do mini races with our club youths as part of a weekly race skills session on a local circuit and that satiates the competitive urge), but have been using pace partners for some over-under type sessions. I've found alternating between mid C (Coco) for recoveries and A/B border (Genie/Constance) for efforts for 10-12 min blocks replicates the right sort of power profile, but is a bit more mentally engaging than just riding to a number.
Gobi 1 Mar 10:54am, 1 Mar 2024 81,065 posts	0 Gobi I raced on Loop de Loop this morning. Expected a 12.6k race and it was double that. Misread the information 😱 Oops Got very lively on the 2 min effort for forward KOM.

Windsor Wool 1 Mar 11:41am, 1 Mar 2024 6,216 posts	0 Windsor Wool and Gobi. I just came across your result quite by accident as I was looking at other race results. How on earth are you in B?! Thought you’d be A+!
Gobi 1 Mar 12:48pm, 1 Mar 2024 81,066 posts	0 Gobi Ww - I was an A plus in lockdown. Change of focus for CX and a Wattbike that under reads by between 10/30watts at 300 to 400 and doubles at 900 stopped me racing much as I lost desire. Chest infection saw me badly down for a few months but head accepts results based on effort so I've been racing a bit again. I'm rebuilding nicely now mind you
Chrisull 1 Mar 1:54pm, 1 Mar 2024 21,179 posts	0 Chrisull Spare a thought for us cat Cs who are just building towards cat B again, and the forthcoming being smashed at every race from then on. (Not that I'm that successful now, but midpack certainly beats back of the pack)
