No. A modest 45km this morning. The next two days will be non-stop eating and drinking. Hopefully time for 100km on the 27th.

I know it doesn’t count but on my DIY F500 I’ve just gone over 200km’s since Sunday.

Yeah, pretty much.
I did the full 500km outdoors a few times before I got the turbo in 2020, but I think I’ll be doing well if I do 3-400km outdoors this time.
It was easier to do shorter outdoor rides when we used to spend Christmas in York at the in-laws and you were out in the lanes in 5 minutes, but I really can’t be arsed with the 40 minutes of riding through traffic at each end of the ride when we’re in London

MyWhooosh is the opposite, solo efforts are slower for the watts.

Good. That’s how it should be. 30km outdoors is an easy hour. Inside, it should be 25km. Or some shiz like that.

75kms, this morning. My lurgy returned on Christmas Eve, so feeling rather 
. If I can do 300k before New Year’s then that’ll be a win.

FFS This guy just rode round Maccies for 500km straight 
although his altitude is dubious, but that’s not unusual if he used a Garmin!

100kms today but still 80kms short of half way. Not feeling great so will see if I have the energy to do a couple of short ones on the last two days.

Well there is a road all the way around it. About 2/3rds of the way round is a low traffic zone and blocked to everything apart from bikes at each end, but the other third is on a busy main road with 2 sets of traffic lights, so I reckon 100? Laps wouldn’t be much fun

I guess you’re like me on Zwift? Flat course and it’s rapid!
Nice work though. I couldn’t hack that length of time on Zwift. Did 100km volcano loops on Zwift in lockdown for the badges. Never again.
