Zwift monitor

[Gregg]

Recognizing that a good portion of my riding is going to be done on Zwift, I've decided to invest in my set up. Time to move up from watching on my iPhone. Time for an actual monitor. Obviously, it can't be too big because I'll have to lug it outside onto the porch where I'm set up. 

Suggestions?

Any HD TV that you can plug am HDMI cable in to connect your laptop to it should work great.  I would check our listserv.  But from what I have seen bigger is better and if you can afford 4k I would do that. I think zwift also works now with apple TV which is great.

I don't do zwift but use trainer road and the most useful things for me have been:

1) A good table - I built mine from scrap but you can find different price ones:

2) a great fan- makes all the difference-

3) Apple AirPods - I like the way they fit a

4) TV

Gregg: We have a 10-year-old 37-inch 720p Panasonic flat screen TV with HDMI inputs that’s been languishing in our basement since we upgraded sets a few years ago. It’s yours for a modest PMC donation (i.e. amount of your choosing). 😉 

It’s A Panasonic TC-L37X2:

Reading your first message again, I realize 37 inch is probably too big for what you are looking for, but offer still stands if of any interest.

Hey guys - check this Rapha movie out. 

Very inspiring short about the interior Icelandic crossing in 1958.

Happy riding!

Thanks Arjun, pretty cool. I love Iceland. Our next big ride?
