Location
With the weather calling for winds up to 20 mph, I will be holding a virtual event via a Discord channel at: https://discord.com/invite/8aGCm5c
Everyone is invited to join in on Discord.
It does not matter the type training platform you use, if you use one at all. Just come and join in for a chat with friends.
Note: The Discord channel will be active 30 minutes prior to the ride start. This way you can test to make sure you are connected.
When you get to the Discord page, you will see a menu on the left labeled "VOICE CHANNELS."
Under this menu list click on "Voice" and you should see yourself listed there. Click on you, then connect to voice.
I will be using Zwift with a smart trainer. Zwift has a feature called Meetup for group rides.
Note: I need to follow you on Zwift before I can send you an invite. Search for me on Zwift Tom Gorman (SBRA) or send me your Zwift ID
.
