I was completely worn out. I was ready to coast in then you waited so I had to push. I’m paying the price now.
Thanks again.
Please everyone make suggestions for next month

Here is one suggestion for next month. La Vuelta 2023|Stage 21-Madrid Part1. 25.85km and 311m elevation.

Looking at the times. You two are very evenly matched.

I think there was a mechanical during an earlier ride. However, it amuses me that he thinks that I may catch him, if he doesn't keep trying really hard!! Who knows, I may!
 
I just read the best article ever. It said you can't lose fat and gain muscle at the same time. The science says to gain muscle you need a calorie surplus of 200 calories a day and to lose fat you need a calorie deficit.
I pay attention to every article I agree with and ignore any I don't like.
If anyone sees an article that says only do downhill training in Rouvy please pass it on.

Edit: @shimceltic its time for you to come back to Rouvy.

So after all these years Christmas is been a best time of year for training, at least the peak of calories hits that moment.

Sorry to say it looks like I am gonna miss everybody getting fit , the last 6 weeks I have been up and down to hospital with suspected dvt , I was given the all about 3 weeks ago as I was scanned and they couldn’t find anything . Last night I went to emergency care and I’ve now got an acute clot from lower back knee to upper knee , no biking for me - not even downhill for a while - will keep popping here for updates , but at min I feel pig sick with things 😞

Sorry to hear that, be well soon as possible. I had a clot in my right calf many years ago, I had a 3-month medication then.
