I used the crib course again on the tt bike. Held 351 for 15:35, 23 mph which given the hill on that course isn’t bad. Feeling much better on the tt bike when it comes to getting the desired power. TT effort starts at the higher peak (a few peaks in) to the left and […]

I rode the tt bike on these and averaged 516, 500, 507, 501, 471, 491, 501, 492, 499, 478 and 490, or 495 avg. Felt good about these especially in the tt position. Used the uphill section of the Ault Park crib course going clockwise.

22:35, 27.35 mph give or take. Actually, looking back over now 19 years of data, that would be one of my faster first nights out on the course. Power was only so-so. I’m adjusting to a more aero position. I do think that 340 watts and that speed is pretty low on the power end.

Had a great time this past weekend with the Upper Arlington High School Cycling Team at their Development Camp at Deer Creek State Park. We arrived on Friday and were treated to a meal cooked by the team with the help of a dietician guided shopping trip to Whole Foods the night before. On Saturday

I used Heekin Avenue from Eastern to Ault park for these as its almost exactly three minutes. With my triple I can maintain 90+ rpms even given the 12-15% slope on the lower section. Held 424, 397, 397, 389 and 393. Pretty much in line with previous efforts.

Did day two of these today. I used the tt bike and held 401, 403, 400, 402 and 389. Had the HR monitor on but the data is messed up. Too close to an airport that causes it to go crazy. Speed looked good at low 25’s to close to 28 mph and that without

101 miles, 10,800′ of climbing, 5000 calories burned; Gatlinburg to Newfound Gap to Cherokee, NC, back to Newfoundland up to Clingmans, down to Sugarland, out to Elkmont and then back home. Exhausting ride with the wind added in.

I rode my 8:15 spin class (55 minutes), then did my 55 minute circuit class, then drove to Tennessee and rode 90 minutes with one 21:30 minute tt effort at 351. On that, the first 8 plus minutes were at 340 and the last 13 at 357. Within that last 13 the final 6 were

Started in the rain and used the crib course at Ault Park. Not my favorite for 15 minute efforts but better than being 10 miles away when the storms come through. Held 347 and 342 or about 5-10 watts below what I want to hold at the tt in a couple of weeks. Should be
