Looks like it! Although Darryn could still make a late dash.
This one could be yours though Rick

- Sitka, Alaska
I might suggest that as a tourist slogan to our city council."come to Sitka for great indoor cycling". Sitka is in a temperate rain forest. And today it is rain all day.Its enough to make me want to move to Alaska. Must be perfect for turboing this time of year.
Lets all have a crack at beating Wiggo! 16th June 6:30 UK time
Bkool Hour Challenge
top 20 from yesterdays Velodrome session- how did I beat Michael Gisler if his average power is more than mine and he weighs (much) less! Or Pinilla and Craig for that matter!!

I'm going to try and join you for that. Not sure I'll last the hour but will give it a go.
Thanks for the info, i'm on for the hour challenge.
Every test I have made so far indicates that BKool algoritmen for calculating power is outputting too high numbers, so there should be a good chance of beating Wiggo (Pep would be riding along with Contandor in the Tour if those numbers were true).
I think you just had more draft.
Good point. I did try on 2 or 3 occasions to tuck in behind a faster person but it was very short lived and didnt seem to be making much of a difference, but yes, that must be the answer!

I'm up for having a go.
Good man!! Thats 4 Cyclechat members so far.
Should be pretty busy on the track! An hour could be quite boring - hard to keep pushing through the pain!
Just raced the Craig Harrison event https://www.facebook.com/events/461135724061968/ and managed a 2. place.

I have a faulty front derailleur, and lost time the 4-5 times the ascend was getting more than 8%. Not 36 seconds though, which was the time diff. to first place.

Sounds like a plan though I fear I may be the weak link out of the three of us! Worth a shot though!Rick & Monte, we could try to do a bit of drafting together to try and get an advantage at least at the start as we'll be fairly closely matched.
Lars, you'll be too quick for us
I would think unless you're planning to keep a lot in reserve for a second half dash.
Great result Lars!
I knew you wont let us down! Was there many in the event? Seemed like a good course but I really wanted to get out on the road yesterday evening as the sun was shining (and that doesnt happen too often here in NI).Sounds like a plan though I fear I may be the weak link out of the three of us! Worth a shot though!
Rick, you might be making more power than me these days, and even though you weigh more that may well work for you in the velodrome. I'll be happy if I can keep up. I peaked in April and have lost a lot of fitness since then. My plan is to get seriously back into the bkool in the autumn when its cooler and my hands have recovered. Hopefully both our leagues will be back up and running too
