2023 Subscriptions George Posted May 13, 2020 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted May 13, 2020 ooft! That was good tonight but my perfectly sculpted legs felt it. Maybe an idea to repeat tonight occasionally and leave the sticky draft off? A good workout instead of a steady trundle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2023 Subscriptions thejanullrichdietplan Posted May 13, 2020 Author 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted May 13, 2020 Yeah it was tougher than i was expecting - took a good 10 minutes to catch you and Mark once you had the gap! I'm not sure why it was off i didn't change anything but it did feel a little more fluid in the climb and sprint sections. I could make the Wednesday ride sticky draft off. Or have an additional ride on a Thursday which would normally be the chaingang night George 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark O Posted May 13, 2020 Report Share Posted May 13, 2020 Was going to ask if the sticky was indeed off. Hard chase to catch on during first lap before the ramps - a few matches burnt. Half expected G to come through and drive on the increase the gap on the 2nd. Felt a bit more like racing. George 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was blowing big time. 10 mins at 320+ watts to catch you. Needed a wee rest and inevitable we’d be caught once Jan put his foot down....

Means folks can still get their steady rides in. thejanullrichdietplan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark O Posted May 13, 2020 Report Share Posted May 13, 2020 Glad to be of service ensuring you are kept in tip top condition George. Had I realised the sticky was genuinely off I might have attempted a wee kick to make the chasers work for another 10 seconds more. Still in the dark over how the individual rider watts work. No way I was doing much over 270 for any length of time on the flatter sections but the respective w/kg figures do seem to even things out. Can’t be down to pure power as suggested on another thread, otherwise I’d get dropped early doors on the flat. just an observation - I do find I filter back through a bunch on descents even with the ergo boost. at the end of the day the break rarely lasts once the peloton sort themselves out and send in the big guns. Good to know everyone else found it a tough work out M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2023 Subscriptions AlanT Posted May 14, 2020 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted May 14, 2020 Struggled to hold 200w (2.4w/kg), so abandoned very early. Going to take today and maybe tomorrow off to let my legs recover a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
