You haven't experienced Tacx-rage yet.. Zwift-rage has nothing on that.norbs wrote:All the new apps have a ways to go yet IMHO. Some many wrinkles that take away from the experience.
Dont get me wrong, I love Zwift (should hit 10,000kms this week), but the frustrations when you just want to get on and ride and something goes wrong

To be honest, all of the rage inducing components I've had with my Tacx have been Tacx software related. The trainer hardware has generally been spot on. The newer Tacx trainers that incorporate FE-C like yours are (fortunately) unlikely to go anywhere near those issues.norbs wrote:CLP wrote:You haven't experienced Tacx-rage yet..

Touch wood, the Neo has performed without flaw. I sometimes forget how lucky I am to have it. No spindowns required, can run without power if needed (the wife unplugs it to use the clothes dryer) and it as quiet as a church mouse.
Fucking expensive though.

It's pretty good for the most part. though it requires a bit more on the hardware side of things compared to zwift. Haven't seen too many real people on there though which is a bit disappointing. hopefully that will changehutchy wrote:Going to set this up over the weekend......has some great potential https://www.roadgrandtours.com/
It's in early development they are going to focus on racing mostly......the bikes lean over as they turn and you will have to slow for corners and accelerate out of them apparently. I'll check out Virtugo as well thanks Carl.CLP wrote:It's pretty good for the most part. though it requires a bit more on the hardware side of things compared to zwift.

Sign up for VirtuGo while you're at it .. i think there's no wait list now.
Road Grand tours is a little ahead of VirtuGo at the moment in terms of development. Though VirtuGo has an Aussie connection. There's also a decent amount of encouragement to post suggestions in the forums of VirtuGo.hutchy wrote:It's in early development they are going to focus on racing mostly......the bikes lean over as they turn and you will have to slow for corners and accelerate out of them apparently.

I have 25kgs on you! And I havent been 67kgs since I was about 15.
I think I was ~75kg, if not a bit more. After being whipped by you up Norton Summit I decided to do something about that! :Pnorbs wrote:Well as much as it fucking pisses me off, I applaud you!
How heavy were you last time I was there in early 2017? I know for damned sure you werent 67kgs.
I am on a bit of a health kick after the Maldives and #toursnacks
I really want to get under 90kgs by years end.
that sounds like whipping me :P I do remember being outclassed on Corkscrew Rd by a fair margin. maybe that was the one i was thinking ofnorbs wrote:I dont recall whipping you anywhere.
I might have gotten away from you up the freeway and corkscrew, but that was only because I was keen for a good time. And if I recall, you had done mega kms before I arrived.
Looking forward to 2019.
No matter, it got me motivated.
