A good piece on pro riders. I am sure AAAC has put out similar numbers over an hour?

Just done a 11.2k session , just goes to prove, don't go to bed at 3am get up a few hours later , then go for a walk and expect to break your record
now legs hurt and I want to sleep , but got 2 proposal to write for work

Had a late night for me and went out in the real world today for first club run. A little tired after going further than planned. The fitness curve is hard at first but rises rapidly.

But what about the preceding 4 hours. No way can I do anything much more than an hour long. Saturday was testimony to that.

We can put that down to age, well that is what I tell myself

It only works out as 3.81 w/kg on average over six hours which is doable but being able to still pull out 4.89 w/kg for 20 mins and somehow manage huge numbers in a sprint after six hours of difficult racing is more impressive. Any long ride over 5 hours no matter what pace my legs suffer a bit putting out and big peak numbers.

But compared to a hard multi stage race like the tour they are inhuman doing 6w/kg after days of hard riding up a climb for 40 mins and then having attacks on that climbing going over threshold is madness.

Blimey it's quiet in here today.

I can't believe everyone's decided to actually do some work, and on the same day! The odds on that happening are so rediculous I can only assume the servers been down all day.

I quite fancy doing the roller coaster course from last month tonight if anyone fancies joining me. Also does anyone know what it's actually called so I can find it

I liked it as well. 'twas thinking it'd make a good course for the handicap if it could be shortened slightly, say taking out the last bump or two.

I'm going to miss tomorrow's handicap, but may be able to jump on the trainer this afternoon. If you're doing that roller coaster ride, I'll certainly join in.

I'm torn between going for a road ride in the real world or doing a Bkool ride - if you say what time you'll be doing it I'll certainly try and join you if I decide to stay indoors!

The ride I think you're meaning is called "Pujades de potencia a Son Angel i La Vall" - http://www.bkool.com/profile/detail/19224?durationType=DISTANCE&lapCount=1

If you go into the leagues section there is a tab for past leagues. You should be able to get to it from there.

I think that's it cheers bridgy. Thanks for the tip boxers I'll try that next time.

I put my daughter in bed at 7:30 so I'll start a warm up at 8 if anyone fancies a spin at that time. Obviously everyone's welcome.

 

[bridgy]

Turns out it suits me best to get my ride done earlier than that so I won't be able to join you unfortunately. Have a good ride

Torn between zwift or Bkool tonight. If Bkool, my fitness rating is likely to drop, but do I care that much.....

 

[bobinski]

Sorry TT only just got home and won't be ready in time. Enjoy!

No worries guys. I'll be happy just to see the last hill behind me at the end!
