Social Ride with Clara Koppenburg >>> REGISTER HERE

Save to you calendar >>> 2023-02-06T18:00:00Z

If you love the ProRides in Wahoo SYSTM, then you’re going to really enjoy this. Cofidis Pro Clara Koppenburg is the star of several ProRides, including Mt. Ventoux and the newly released Tour de Suisse Women’s series.

On this ride, and using Race Radio, Clara and ProRides creator Francois Guguen (me) will discuss her life in the peloton, goals for this season, and what it’s like making a ProRide! The 22k ride will take place on a Magic Road based on one of Clara’s favourite training loops.

NB: Rubber Banded activated so everyone can join, no matter what your fitness level is!

It doesn’t appear in the list of events on RGT, so I had to use the link to sign up

That’s really cool!
I’ve signed up - it’ll be my first RGT event/group ride.
Looking forward to it!

Yep.

6pm UTC (Coordinated Universal Time) which I prefer to use as the official worldwide time reference. :wink:
It will only appear in public once we’ve reached 20 riders.

I’m bummed out. Most of these group rides are getting scheduled during my workday. And I’m not the only one, most in the US will run into the same issue.

I appreciate that Brian and I’m sorry.
This first one is really an experiment.
If the idea is well received then we will look into finding a slot that works best for most people (bearing in mind some riders will often be based in Europe).
Maybe we also look at having rides during the weekend when possible.

I signed up, but likely to join 30min late. Will I still be able to join in for the last bit?

Saturday would be great, but getting a general consensus might be the better choice. My schedule is so packed that finding a free time slot is difficult for me, no matter which day is chosen.

Weekends would be great. Since people are all over the globe no time will be perfect. That said, 10AM EST, which is 4 PM in Europe would work for many, although early for the US west coast and bad for Asia. It might work to vary the times so that everyone would get some times that worked.

OK. This sounds cool. I haven’t embraced (or really figured out) RGT yet so maybe this is a good way to get started. It also will fit subbing in for a workout in my current plan. I’ve tried a few “Just Ride” rides successfully. I’ll have to figure out how joining and riding an event works.

I was REALLY looking forward to this but had to bail. Have a good ride!

You missed a great ride and a fantastic interview. I have never heard such honesty from a professional athlete.

Thank you Francois. Great ride and.a fantastic interview. Is there any way to default to push to talk for future rides of the nature.

This ride was great. Thanks for organizing it Francois! And thanks to Clara for taking the time to talk to us.

+1 on this. Or an option for the ride organizer to mute everyone (or selected people).

Thanks @Mike2 - Appreciate it and glad you enjoyed it.
Not setting ‘Push to talk’ by default might have been my user-error to begin with. Some settings I didn’t get right. Will work on that! :slight_smile:

@Francois-Wahoo , is it OK to make this ride public on Strava?

Absolutely! The more , the merrier!

Thank you @Francois-Wahoo for organizing this ride, and to Clara for participating and being so candid!
It was a lot of fun.

RGT on my Apple TV unfortunately lost my Bluetooth sensors for about 7 minutes, and I ended up having to shutdown and restart RGT in order to get the sensors to reconnect. That put me about 4km behind the lead group and I ended up riding mostly alone…

Francois, was rubber-banding enabled for this ride? I noticed that the raiders were very spread out over the course…
