Great day of talks at @Sports_Engineeeing_Seminar_Day2023. My first chance to talk about how real-time aerodynamics is changing what we do.

@TheSkippyKitten My favourite argument right now is “we should embrace hybrids”. Yes we should! We should do that 20 years ago.

@lanierbenkard @therealrchung @CyclingScience1 @_JamesSteward_ @Doctor_Hutch As it's a new method there's a lot to learn and we'll be methodically going to more complex environments as we continue to hit our performance objectives in these more controlled venues.

@lanierbenkard @therealrchung @CyclingScience1 @_JamesSteward_ @Doctor_Hutch Building sensors for direct force measurement was definitely a challenge, but we're happy we have that right. Our focus this spring was building relationships with elite athletes, so we met them where they're comfortable testing - velodromes.

@Watt_Shop @DanBiggles22 Nicely done @DanBiggles22 !

Awesome profile of our very own Anna C, who can always find the signal in the noise!

The cycling world lost a legend this week. Eddie B was a class-act and a coach who didn't push his athletes, he inspired them to push themselves. RIP Eddie, you were the best coach I ever had.

... make a USB hub for my Dell XPS 13, a computer made by the company you provide technical support for, that will let me use both a keyboard and a mouse at the same time?

[Eric DeGolier @BodyRocketEric]

Hey @DellCares since I haven't heard from you yet I thought I'd let you know how it's going. My latest correspondence with the team - "Again, you have not answered my question, which is very clear. Does Dell, that is the company you provide technical support for,...

[Eric DeGolier @BodyRocketEric]

@DellCares I'm 6 days into a chat with your tech team, who insists no USB hub, not even @Dell USB hubs are compatible with my XPS 13.
Meanwhile, the Dell sales team assures me they are fully compatible. Can you please ask them to talk to each other? I'll buy 1 if I get support.

[Eric DeGolier @BodyRocketEric]

D:"the USB hub will work for single devices connected. However, may not work with multiple devices connected at the same time."
M:"neither keyboard nor mouse work through the hub. Are you saying if I bought a @Dell hub you could guarantee that at least one device at a time works?

[Eric DeGolier @BodyRocketEric]

D:"What I meant was, the USB hub will work for single devices connected. However, may not work with multiple devices connected at the same time."
M:"So I'll ask again. None of these hubs that you're selling as XPS 13 accessories are actually supported by @Dell?"

[Eric DeGolier @BodyRocketEric]

After 4 days of blaming the 3 different USB hubs I'm testing I offered to buy a Dell hub for my new XPS 13 and tech support says "I doubt if any USB hub will be compatible". I buy @Dell because they just work, and when they don't the service has been great. This is nonsense.

[Eric DeGolier @BodyRocketEric]

D:"I am sure there is no hardware issue with the laptop USB port. This must be an issue with the compatibility"
M:"It sounds like you are still saying a Dell USB hub won't work."

[Eric DeGolier @BodyRocketEric]

More complete transcript with @Dell tech support.
M:"A docking station isn't practical for me. How about one of the Dell USB hubs?"
D:"I doubt if any USB hub will be compatible with the setup"
M:"Not even Dell USB C hubs?"
