Yes, our chatter was just the text messaging in Zwift.
The company and the chatter made the hardest efforts in The Omnium feel more doable. Kept me from getting stuck inside my own head. 
I don’t remember a lot of the ride. Mostly the conversation on screen and the music from The Omnium from my headphones. 
I did my final time with The Omnium by myself, tho I did have a couple of riders from the Knight Ride who also continued on to ride with or behind or ahead of me, so that was cool. Then I did Recovery Spin which was a good ending. Just me and 111w at 80-85rpms while everyone else passed me by.
M on the keyboard allows you to compose and send a message. However, if you, like me, are a world class holy water producer, I think that touching a keyboard is not a good idea.
I run the companion in my phone and use text to speech - with sometimes “amusing” results. 
Especially when you are screaming a set of profanities and they “accidentally” get posted.
That’s my biggest fear!
There’s a profanity filter in Zwift (I’m not even kidding), so if anyone is offended they can bleep their bleeping bleeps
This weekend’s Knight Rides are posted for sign up. Thought we’d do the new(ish) Sugar Cookie loop in Watopia this time out. 33.6km, mostly flat. Some fun coastal and cliffside time.
At the request of the Sir @emacdoug fan club, I set it up as a two-lap banded ride so people can drop off whenever they’re done or stick it out to keep Sir Evan company. So if you’re badge hunting, you’ll get a loop credit at 33.6km, but feel free to stay on as long as you want. I’m told the banding will continue to work so long as the group ride is active.

See you then!
Might be on the Saturday ride. Outdoor bicycle is in the shop.
should be there for the Saturday afternoon ride
Tis the season.
I’ve signed up for the 8 am CDT ride with the usual caveats about my sub expiring, 
, and 
Strong possibility of the Saturday am ride. Having a reason to get on the bike is kind of motivating. Lately it’s been “well it’s there….” and then promptly do something else.
That sounds like a very small club.
But I’ll be there on the early ride for the entire 2 loops. 
Called the shop. Outdoor bicycle might be ready today. If it is, I may be a late join to the ride.
This morning’s wattage bazooka goes to @Glen.Coutts! Try as I might he definitely laid some IWBMATTKYT on me and photo finish beat me at every sprint. Well done Sir! You made me work for it and showed me I need go see myself to a flogging station.
Lol! Wouldn’t have even tried if you hadn’t pushed me, Sir. Also, YOU won the last sprint.
Huh, I thought you took them all. In my defense, I was busy mopping holy water out of my eyes and trying to drag as much oxygen as humanly possible into my lungs.
I have a sufbucket full of reasons (aka excuses) as to why I lost the last one, but the main one is that I was outsprinted
That’s because you had, uh, business to take care of.
