40km Chain Gang on Tick Tock
This is not a race. This is a chain gang.
Is anyone interested in adding kms to their bikes? Then join us.
Saturday 07:30 UK time.
Ride together, hold the pace, take your turn on the front, and see how long you can hold the wheel. We’re using the Cadex Tri with draft enabled, so it’s a perfect chance to get a proper group session in while stacking kilometres towards bike upgrades.
Two pace groups:
👉 Group E goes first
👉 Group A goes 5 minutes later
No hiding. No free rides. Do your turn.
There’s also a 2-hour cooldown afterwards if you want to stay on and keep building kms on the Cadex Tri.

🔥 TNP POWER TEST STARTS TOMORROW 🔥
A month-long challenge built around one thing…
👉 Your 5-minute power
This is your shot to:
💥 Beat your old PB
💥 Move up the team rankings
💥 Put your name on the leaderboard
📍 THIS WEEK’S TEST
• New routes each week
• Segment: Volcano KOM
• 3.7 km @ 3.2%
👉 Perfect for a sustained 5-minute effort
This isn’t about sitting in or hiding in the wheels…
👉 It’s just you vs the segment
👉 5 minutes of pure effort
👉 No excuses
🔗 EVENT LINKS
www.zwift.com/uk/events/tag/tnptnp
📊 HOW IT WORKS
• Only the segment time counts
• The lead-in is there to warm up and get ready
• When you hit the segment… full gas
👉 This means:
• No need to race the lead-in
• No sitting in worrying about position
• Just hit the climb and empty the tank
⚖️ ZRS / VELOSCORE
• The event itself will NOT affect your ZRS or Veloscore
• The only way it changes is if you set a new 5-minute power PB
👉 So you can commit fully without worrying about rankings
🎯 THE TARGET
Everyone should be aiming to improve their previous best
Even a few seconds faster = a big result
🎯 MONDAY IS DAY ONE
No waiting. No easing in
Set your marker early
Let’s see who’s actually got the power when it matters
#TNP #NoPrisoners 🔥

Tonight’s stream crashed before it began and then the recording was corrupted. Let me tell you it would have been some watch, especially the moment I threw up crossing the line. 😢🤮

🎄 Before I forget (as Christmas is tomorrow!) 🎄
I just want to say a massive thank you to everyone who’s watched, liked, commented, and supported the channel this year. It genuinely means more to me than you probably realise.
I hope you all have a brilliant Christmas, get some quality time with family and friends, and manage to enjoy a bit of rest (and maybe too much food 😄).
Thanks again for being part of the journey, plenty more to come in the New Year.
Take care and enjoy the holidays! 🚴♂️🎅

🚨 JOIN THE FASTEST-GROWING TEAM ON ZWIFT – TEAM NOT POGI WANTS YOU FOR ZRL ROUND 3!
Team Not Pogi – Final ZRL Standings (Round 2) + Performance Summary
Each ZRL team can register up to 12 riders. This depth is crucial, especially when illness, injury, work, and life inevitably hit. Some squads had to borrow riders late in the season, which is exactly why we’re pushing for full rosters going into Round 3.
🏁 Final Placings + Team Performance Notes
Ventoux – 18:30 UK (Shamrock A1) – 🥇 1st Place
A consistently strong team throughout the season, both in performance and depth. Ventoux dominated their division and will now proudly receive ZRL winner’s jerseys in-game.
Tourmalet – 18:30 UK (Shamrock B2) – 4th Place
Hit hard by illness, injuries, and rider promotions late in the season. Without those setbacks, Tourmalet were serious podium contenders.
Galibier – 19:30 UK (Navy A2) – 6th Place
Another team affected by illness and rider availability, but they dug deep every single week. A resilient squad with plenty of quality.
Stelvio – 18:00 UK (Lime B2) – 6th Place
Solid throughout, especially considering they often supported other squads when numbers dipped. A team that stepped up whenever asked.
Oude Kwaremont – 18:00 UK (Lime C2) – 🥇 1st Place
Dominant from start to finish, backed by a deep and reliable roster. Like Ventoux, they will also receive ZRL winner’s jerseys in-game.
Sa Calobra – 18:00 UK (Lime C3) – 8th Place
Regularly used to bolster other squads, which affected their final placing. Still, huge commitment from everyone who jumped in when needed.
Cipressa – 18:00 UK (Lime B1 Dev) – 9th Place
A development team with shifting demands throughout the season. They repeatedly filled gaps to help the wider TNP effort, massive credit to all involved.
📌 Why We Need Full 12-Rider Rosters
When squads don’t have 12 riders, late-season absences create a domino effect—moving riders between teams and stretching availability thin.
Round 3 is our chance to fix this and come back even stronger.
🚀 Join Team Not Pogi for ZRL Round 3
Whether you’re chasing podiums, looking to develop, or just want to be part of a supportive and competitive Zwift community, there’s a place for you at TNP.

I can only apologise for the latest stream. Not sure if it was the weather affecting the internet or a tech issue. I will endeavour to get it sorted for the next one. I’ve never had it freeze before.
