And this.

Far too much sense being posted today. What’s going on??!!

Well, Martins know for his common sense, but Tommy....

Don’t worry. I’m out drinking this afternoon. Normal service will be resumed shortly!

Never been able to get W/Kg over 3.2. Id need ave 20mins of 296W, which I cant seem to hit these days.

You could do a @Whorty or myself and try to drop a few kg's, either actual or theoretical

Nah, I was becoming a little obsessive before xmas about weight. Trying to ignore that aspect whilst having healthy diet currently.

I've just done stage 1 at 45.43, and very pleased with that. Started well, but died a bit towards the end. I think that's the first flat out effort I've done since the last tour. I'm 3 kgs lighter than I was then.

I've been doing most of my training at 70-75% of FTP, to try and build stamina for long rides, so it was good to let rip for once. 300km audax next Saturday, so I need to be careful and not get carried away with zwift.

You was pushing me early on, I thought you'd stay in the same group as me the whole way. Great seeing a fellow CCer on the ride Good time

I definitely faded a bit, possibly was too enthusiastic early on. I had two big weeks mileagewise, in mid-March, then was a bit fatigued for a couple of weeks. I did my best 5 second power earlier this week and training has been feeling good, so thought I was coming back into some kind of form.

How often have you done stage 1 now?

Done it 5 times - it's a good stage for a workout Couldn't beat my PB today though, lost time in the run in. Group I was in today not as fast as Tuesday

Highest watts on your fifth effort though! Once was enough for me.

 

[Alongo]

Just noticed that Tour of Watopia , Stage 3 is a group ride based on the Jon’s mix workout , will this still be classed as a “race” for the league as it is supposed to be ridden at specific watts?
