Meglet Jan 2017 8:41am, 24 Jan 2017 17,592 posts	Quote Pin Meglet I made a mistake, I transferred my virtual Zwift ride in London to Fetch. It cost me more in penalties than if I'd just accepted my home bug penalties. Won't be doing that again!

Might give it a go to attempt to get one of the bugs but the other is on an unlit, country road with no pavements that's not great in the daylight so even with a headtorch I wouldn't safe going there at night

Hallucyn8 Jan 2017 3:27pm, 24 Jan 2017 239 posts	Quote Pin Hallucyn8 Windsor Wool - I have considered it but just wonder whether it's in the spirit of the game. I have run on that road before, although only to collect bugs and only in good visibility, so not sure that it's right to mark it as inaccessible. It's definitely not a road I would pick to run on normally but is that a good enough reason to mark it as inaccessible?
