It Lives! Code now in Golden Cheetah

Woohoo, Sean has announced the code has been accepted and pushed to the Golden Cheetah repository.

So, in 2 months we went from the impossible to the possible and its done.

Wow.

Patch pushed to Golden Cheetah

A 270k (!) patch to include this stuff in the Golden Cheetah codebase has been pushed across to Sean. Hopefully this will get released to the world soon. Really excited about it. In the meantime, here is a screenshot of it running on Linux. I wasn't pedalling at the time :-)

Computrainer on a Mac. Done.

Ride across America (and the Atlantic Ocean)

Wow. There is now a team of folks in the Golden Cheetah community developing some really cool and exciting new features. Justin in Montreal is getting ANT+ devices working so you can turn that tired old turbos or set of rollers into a Computrainer, I'm still mucking about with the Computrainer support and a few other odds and sods, and Steve in Seattle has the coup de grace, by adding a streaming server and support.

The video below is our first proof of concept with streaming workouts via a specially built server. In it you will see Steve's Mac, running Golden Cheetah but reading telemetry from his server. I'm in Cranleigh riding my socks off on my Computrainer and sending my data over the Atlantic and across to the West Coast of America.

As you can imagine, its all very exciting and we're already thinking of next steps, group rides, racing and who knows what else we can imagine. The killer here though is there is a lot of very, very clever folks working on this, including the project leader Sean in NYC, and two Gregs who between them have addded .3dp support to Golden Cheetah and are helping to test the code and provide veteran power training insight.

Watch the Golden Cheetah Google Group for more news, this is gonna be HUGE!

ANT+ Support!

Yep, we can now stream from any ANT+ device so Cinqos, SRM, Powertap and just about any of the new devices coming to market. Justin has done some awesome work as you'll see in the video below.
