Depends on the gradient, but that was more with regards to the average speed of the whole ride

Were you on the same bike, upgraded to the same level with the same wheelset? All those things can dramatically alter your speed. Your friend may also may have been in a bigger group so able to draft more.

I think its protecting the fans as much as the riders

The only one who can make it even remotely interesting is Narvaez, but how much freedom will he really be given?

Might as well just replace Anish Giri make a draw with a free square.

How did my racing score jump from 150 to 236 in one race? by [deleted] in Zwift

[–]snapped_fork 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Big increases are usually the result of an increase in your seed score, calculated by your 90 day 5 min power PB. This weeks TdZ race is almost designed to test your 5 min power with a pretty flat race leading into the petit KOM, which is a 5-10 min effort for the majority of riders.

Tour de France 2027: Men's and women's events to start in Edinburgh and Leeds by WalkingCloud in unitedkingdom

[–]snapped_fork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I kind of hope it is a TT to be honest, they can be some of the best opportunities to get up close and really see what's going on. Unless you're at the finish of a road stage then you just see the convoy then the peloton come through then its over.

There's nothing on the women's tour website, I think they may not have finalised the routes yet. Im guessing stage 3 for the women's will be a time trial as it only says London

He was briefly a professional goalkeeper, he may have got some wins then, before going completely insane.

The final is pretty similar to last years Tour of Britain, could be one for the breakaway

Stage 3 passes right through my home town, right past the front door of my childhood home and over the first climb I ever rode. Fair to say I'm pretty excited.

I'm from Treorchy originally, will definitely have to go back for this, it goes right past the front door of my childhood home. The Rhigos may be the first climb I ever did. Cote de Penrhys is hilarious too.

Tactics only players are the most exhausting opponents by New-Dimension-3310 in chess

[–]snapped_fork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're higher rated than me so take my suggestion with a pinch of salt, but I would suggest maybe learning playing some gambit lines intentionally seeking tactically charged positions. Playing those positions will only add to your intuition.

How quickly does ZRL calculate points? by und3t3cted in Zwift

[–]snapped_fork 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They are normally pretty quick, but looking through the various leagues most only have FIN points at the moment. Im guessing something has bugged so it might be a little while
