Yeah ideally all the segments could be run concurrently. Or be put up on a more permanent basis.

Haha, great ride Andy and soooooo close to the top spot.

This really.

Segment hunting could be fun but anyone not racing in the new year needs to be prepared for some serious needle. And no @Whorty that doesn’t mean you can go from inhaler to injecting. It ain’t that kind of needle!

Ventolin is a gateway TUE

I quite like the bigger segments, but it's all a bit of fun tied into other training. I just use it as a marker for peak fitness., Whatever your time is, you can improve it. I think a few segments each month to have a go at either within a race or just going for the segment like the tower climb. It takes 30 mins just to get there in the first place

Missed out on a milestone for me by 4 Watts . More annoyed than missing the KoM. I think there is a tiny bit more to squeeze out, took foot off pedal too much, so to speak, in the middle flatter section.

Back on TrainerRoad. Started Sweet Spot Base 2, mid volume. Will mix a few races and segment challenges in as well.

Have you done that block before, just looking at it and i might give it a go.

I have a real aversion to needles having spent a lot of time in hospital as a kid .... I'd be a rubbish junkie

My blue inhaler is the same stuff that Froome uses ... all legal (apparently )

A strava segment is for life, not just for Christmas...

Same here. I mean I’m doing a trainerroad session rather than a segment attempt. But the next few days I’ll be trying to fit in sessions in between, errrr, sessions of the drinking variety. And women say we can’t multi task!

Taken the Volcano Climb top spot, only just and Corkscrew time was slower as expected.

That's a very good time Darren and the corkscrew is excellent given you were going for the full loop.

I can't let that stand, so I need to build a lead into the corkscrew of maybe 20-30 seconds, lose it all on the climb and then use my weight advantage for the run home. A Christmas challenge
