Easter "Blue Screen of Death" sale

Hey David,

We are having a storewide sale - 25% off.

[Click here to go to our online store and pick up a bargain]

Yesterday I was happily working away on some new indoor training videos when this happened to my computer.

It's been playing up for the last few weeks now and the problem is caused by some hardware issue, so the machines on it's way to being cactus. It's just a matter of time.

The good thing is that I do regular backups and all our data is safe, so I haven't lost anything.

Phew...

I've had the computer for about six years now, and it's been reliable for all that time up until now so, I guess it's time for a replacement.

I've just gone online to purchase a new one (because in the country you just can't just pop down to your local computer store and pick up a new one). It will be arriving a few days after Easter.

If you know anything about computers that are capable of video editing you'll know they need to be quite powerful and so don't come cheap.

So with this in mind, I thought that I'd offer you a 25% storewide discount on all of our online training products to help fund the purchase of this new computer.

This offer excludes our coaching packages but covers off all out indoor training videos that are Zwift and TrainerRoad compatible, eBooks and our standalone training programs.

So, plenty of stuff to help you become even more awesome on the bike, regardless of whether you are a racing cyclist or a recreational rider.

All you need to do is apply the following coupon code when you check out your order:

25offspecial

I hope you find something to makes your hills, bunch rides or races easier.

If you have any questions or need help choosing, just let me know and I'll help you select something suitable for your riding.

All the best and Happy Easter.

1/3 of new hires leave within 6 months: how to keep your employees

Nearly 1/3 of U.S. workers have left a job within 6 months of being hired, according to a Gartner study, and cite “more effective training” as a top reason why.

A strong onboarding process is the first impression of your business for a new hire. If a new employee lacks an assigned workspace or isn’t properly trained, they’re more likely to leave, a costly proposition for your company.

In this Gartner report, discover a variety of ways that your business can potentially improve the onboarding process:

Prioritize process/technology enhancements
Add assimilation components
Expand to include additional worker types
And more

Word of the Day: cloud disaster recovery

Word of the Day
Daily updates on the latest technology terms \|March 30, 2018

cloud disaster recovery (cloud DR)

Cloud disaster recovery (cloud DR) is a backup and restore strategy that involves storing and maintaining copies of electronic records in a cloud computing environment as a security measure. The goal of cloud DR is to provide an organization with a way to recover data and/or implement failover in the event of a man-made or natural catastrophe.

There are a number of benefits that make cloud disaster recovery appealing, including the variety of ways it can be implemented: in-house, partially in-house or purchased as a service. This flexibility allows smaller enterprises to implement robust disaster recovery plans that would otherwise have been impossible. Typically, cloud providers charge for storage on a pay-per-use model, based on capacity, bandwidth or seat. Because the provider is in charge of purchasing and maintaining its storage infrastructure, the customer doesn't have to spend money on additional hardware, network resources, data center space and the personnel required to support them.

In addition to cost, there are other important issues to consider before adopting cloud-based disaster recovery:

Does the organization have the necessary bandwidth and network resources to move data fast enough between the primary site and the cloud?
Can the organization encrypt data in flight as it leaves the data center?
