Yes that long uphill at the start should give you and Keith a sizeable lead. Hopefully I can muster some power and not loose too much time. :boxing:
Yes. Last week was basically downhill, this week is basically up, though hopefully not too killing, just enough to push everybody to their limits.

The new Sim no longer gives me the magic blue numbers and downhill in 53-11@ 73rpm only putting out 85 watts. I guess as there is no longer any advantage to the extra weight I better think about losing 25 pounds.

I was expecting you to come flying past after the start and was surprised that I was able to stay a second or two ahead. It seems you lost your downhill advantage with the new sim, just like I seem to have lost some advantages I had, although not quite worked out what they are yet. Indicated power is down a lot and it doesn't seem possible to spike it up the way it used to, but it could just be that I had far too lazy a summer.
Strangely @Brusgaard still seems to have a downhill advantage, although this is fair as he loses on the uphill.

Like last week, don't let the short distance fool you. Long sections at 9%+ and very little downhill! :sweat:

@keithaitch would probably smash it in 22 minutes or less… My time 27:24.

I have more than enough riding to do so I don't think I can join but what is the team unlimited, is it just another league?
It's a featured ride on Mondays and Thursdays and people who complete the stage get a chance to win something. Some of the scheduled rides have a pro in them to test yourself against
