First Blue Streak Time Trial

Other than it being too cold (48-52), I feel good about this effort. Average power for the entire 10 miles was 362, cadence at 87, max watts 815, 4.7 watts/kg avg. The first half was 354/89 and the second half was 369/87. I really think that once things warm up that I’ll be holding some

4×6 minutes steady state

The first two were with some tail wind and the second two into the wind. Very gusty, like 20-40 mph. Made handling the tt bike interesting. Felt good about the power

6×4 hill climb efforts

I left the house at 5:30am and did;t retain until about 4:00 pm. Given the traffic on a Friday I didn’t want to go to my ideal road for the 4×6 steady state so I did the 6×4 on the hill close by (Heekin Avenue). Power was 405, 374, 373, 366, 366 and 363. Well
