The heavy reduction on this suggests the taste is unbearable.

Naturally I've ordered four.

It's not awful, but it is weird.

Like mixing a gatorade with lemsip and crushing in some trebor xxxx mints.

Oh I see, altitude training for more power at sea level 😜

My first four times up the Alpe were 66:13, 57:53, 50:38 and 49:23, and I felt like I was dying every time! Never say never: you'll be faster again next time up!

Stage 8 looks lovely fun 54.8km with 902m ascent (like stage 7 on steroids)

About that stage, speed and distance doesn't kill, watching that profile will do that job

That's going to be anything from 1hr45 to over 2hours....... gulp

That's pretty much what I've just figured, now taking a look at the power curve to try and set a working average power target. I think the main tactic will be survival.

 

[CXRAndy]

Its not like its an Z2 2hours, pretty much tempo/threshold level

I was thinking nearly twice as long as stage-7 but we'll see how it goes.
